enginestar Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Anything wrong with buying on Windows Store? (I personally prefer to buy from there, I know it's something I can trust) Are there any limitations? One important thing for me is being able to run on 3/4 laptops. All of these have my Windows login - so if buying on Windows Store, all is OK. But if I buy the direct download, are there any limitations on usage? I will only ever use on 2 machines to be honest... and on each, I'm only logged one at a time when using. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee D Posted May 19, 2019 Staff Share Posted May 19, 2019 Due to how the Windows Store version works, it's can't be used as an external editor. You can install it on Windows machines that use the same account, up to 10 devices. If purchased direct from the Affinity Store you can still install the app on devices you own/control. enginestar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windows Store apps run in a sandbox environment - you have to change the permissions before you can use AP as an external editor. Unless things have changed, you can't use the beta version with the Windows Store licence. enginestar 1 Quote AP, AD & APub user, running Win10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enginestar Posted May 19, 2019 Author Share Posted May 19, 2019 Thanks for the replies guys. Direct download seems to be the recommended route, so I'll go for that when trial runs out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
