boehm_visuals Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Hey guys, lately I've been having a strange issue and my attempts to fix it haven't worked out so far. My brother is hosting a server in his office to which I connect via VPN and the usual Finder Cmd+K shortcut. However, whenever I am not connected to the network device, Affinity Photo severely slows down, takes ages to load or close and shows the attached finder prompt(*). It tries to connect to my brothers server somehow. I tried clearing the last used items tab, since usually I open up images on the network device. That didn't solve the issue though. So, it seems to me, like it's trying to load something else which I cannot seem to find. All the brushes I use are local and there's little more I can think off. Any ideas? (* Rough translation: An error occured while trying to connect to the Server. Ask your sys admin for more info.)
Staff DWright Posted October 1, 2019 Staff Posted October 1, 2019 Affinity Photo may have been autosaving when you disconnected from the network and it is now trying to reconnect to the location of the original file can you please go to the follow locaction and clear any entries. ~/Library/Containers/com.seriflabs.affinityphoto/Data/Library/Application Support/autosave/

There was indeed quite a large file in the folder. However, deleting it did not do the trick. Affinity Photo immediately tries to reconnect to the server during launch. Do you reckon there's something different that's trying to connect to the server? Could Photo have saved something, e.g. options or anything alike, that it's trying to load?
boehm_visuals Posted October 1, 2019 Author Posted October 1, 2019 In fact, after deleting the autosave file Photo takes even longer to open and close. Minutes even.
