John Rostron Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 I posted this question earlier on the Photo Beta forum, but it seems more appropriate here. Various people have pointed out that some plugins that now work in v1.6 no longer work in v1.7 beta. Now v1.7 is finally released, will we be able to run the legacy v1.6 so as to be able to use these plugins?

It should work, taking a copy if the 1.6.5 installation folder before you update, leaves the copied 1.6.5 EXE working,. It will not be able to load the 1.7 .AFPhoto files, and may get confused over new buttons on the toolbars etc. Quote Patrick Connor Serif Europe Ltd Latest V2 releases on each platform Help make our apps better by joining our beta program!

I think that I shall try copying the folder and seeing if the .exe file works before installing 1.7. I would probably not be trying to apply plugins to an .afphoto file, but to newly acquired .awr or .jpg files.

R C-R Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Am I correct in guessing that there is no Mac equivalent for this?
