Gottfried Posted November 20, 2018 Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) I have problems after installing .164 - installation / update works smoothly but the icon only flicker up and the program does not start. Is this maybe a W10 UpDateProblem ... ??? I have already several times uninstalled, cleaned, shut down and reinstalled, started as Admin .... always the same ... Publisher does not start. Photo / Designer and all other programs are working fine ....... there is a log file from Serif ???? to find out the error ??? that would be helpful. as i said, only publisher is affected .... 181128 Well, my problem was solved by a crashed W10. Now, after reinstalling, everything works again. - a miracle has happened.... w10 so good... ..and the work [with W10] does not stop there !!! Edited November 28, 2018 by Gottfried
Chris_K Posted November 21, 2018 Posted November 21, 2018 Hi Gottfried I presume you mean the latest 174? In file explorer can you go to %appdata%/Affinity/Publisher/1.0 (beta) and attach the log.txt file. This may tell us what is preventing the app form starting. Also what language is you system sent to? Cheers Serif Europe Ltd - Check the latest news at www.affinity.serif.com
jcalsos Posted November 21, 2018 Posted November 21, 2018 I'm having the same problem. It worked at first before I installed the Photo and Designer betas. I don't know if it's related but after I installed the other betas now publisher won't open. The same thing that happens to Gottfried the splash screen shows up and then goes away and the program never comes up. Win10, 64bit, and my system is set to English. I'm attaching my log.txt file. Log.txt
jcalsos Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 It there any update. on this issue? I still can't open Publisher at all. Both other programs and the betas for them work fine. But publisher still won't open.

Do you mean Windows 10? Did you have to clean install the OS to make it work?
Gottfried Posted November 29, 2018 Author Posted November 29, 2018 yes, I had to set it up anew because it's greasy when I reset to a restore point. So, start over again, but now it works. ... and again I have to rethink my backup policy .... anyway, now the publisher works again. PS: I only work with full versions of Affinity, and I've been sorting and making decisions for a long time [ACDSee 2019] and I'm very happy.
