Publisher won't start

[pabloovl]

Hi guys,

Just installed Affinity Publisher beta but it is not starting. Well, it start the opening screen and a few seconds after it closes. Any clues? (running as admin)

Windows 8 / intel i7 / x64

Thanks

Hi pabloovl

Check Task Manager and make sure the app isn't already running. End the task if it is and try again (run as administrator) Also, can you check if any Antivirus programs are blocking the app at all?

Hi pabloovl

Can you check a couple of things for me. Firstly do you have any form of tablet plugged in?  If not can you try in explorer going to %appdata%/Affinity/Publisher and deleting the 1.0 (beta) folder and then running it?

If that still does not work can you try running the installer again and doing a repair

Cheers

Hello Chris and JFisher,

Did some windows updates and reinstalled Publisher. It worked! Did some tests and when exploring some print options (book and booklet), it crashed. Reopened, tryed again and it worked. So, just some instability... I hope we can see some .indd / .idml compatibility soon, aswell as some impositioning solutions for making signatures for books in a more automatic way, where you can choose signatures sizes (number of pages per signature).

Thanks!
