@Pool Player. Firstly, you should have posted this message in the Questions on Desktop forum. This forum is for posting existing resources. The mods may well transfer this thread.

You should have been doing the following:

  1. Export the macro to a known location (I often forget where I have saved it!) The macro should have a .afmacro suffix.
  2. Locate the macro on your PC and copy to your memory card.
  3. In the other PC, copy the macro from the memory card to a known location.
  4. Open AP and open the Macros panel (View > Sudio > Macros). Not the Library panel.
  5. In the  Macros panel, click on Import and navigate to your known location. It should show up if it has the right suffix.
  6. Import the macro.

The usual reason for not finding a macro is that it has the wrong suffix.

If you have saved your macro in a library, then it is rather different:

  1. You save your macro library with the suffix .afmacros.
  2. On the second computer, open View > Studio > Library
  3. In the library panel click on import as before.
  4. The macro library will be imported, and you may have to click on this to see you macro within it.

I always save my exported macros under Affinity\Photo\Resources\Macros.
