Affinity designer 1.7 Setup failed


Recommended Posts

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums, @ryush.

It seems to be a permissions problem. The detailed message in SetupUI.log suggests running the installer as Administrator.

I would also suggest rebooting Windows first, so try this:

  1. Reboot Windows.
  2. Then right-click on the installer .exe file and choose Run As Administrator.

Reboot first always works for me.  Run as Administrator doesn't seem to matter.  It happens with Photo, Designer, and Publisher.
