lugi Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Good morning everyone, my question is the following, is it possible to install Affinity Photo version 1.6.5 and version 1.7 on the same computer. Indeed, some functions present on the 1.6.5 have disappeared from the new version. When I try to install version 1.6.5 it opens a dialog window to update from 1.7 to 1.6.5 which of course results in failure and no other possible choices when running the installation program Thanks you Quote
Staff Callum Posted June 6, 2019 Staff Posted June 6, 2019 Hi Lugi, Welcome to the forums Unfortunately it isn't possible to have two versions installed at once. Thanks C Quote Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP.

Other users may then be able to suggest how to work around these missing functions. Jeff lugi 1 Quote Win 11 Pro, intel i7 14700, NVidia GTX 4060, 32G RAM, intel UHD 770.

I posted this question in the Photo for Windows Forum and got this reply from @Patrick Connor: Quote 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. I copied the Photo folder and renamed it Photo 1.6, then installed Photo 1.7. So far I have had no problems in running the two versions. This was only this afternoon, so there me problems surfacing at some stage, but none so far. All my plugins that worked for 1.6 are there in 1.7 and thse that I have tried work. Note this is on Windows. It may not work on a Mac.
