Crash on startup - 1.7.3.481


Recommended Posts

Hello, I'm new to affinity Photo.

I can't even open the program on my computer and it does't generate any crash reports.

I even checked the crashreports folder like mentioned in some other threads, but the folder is empty.

Anyway, I'm trying to run Affinity photo V1.7.3.481 on a Dell XPS 13 9380 

Core i7-8565U

Windows 10 home V1809 build 17763.737.

Anyone had this issue before? I tried reinstalling, downloading again, running with nothing plugged in, restarting. Same results so far.

Hi Chicane00,

Welcome to the forums :)

Please could you try opening the app with the CTRL key held down and when the reset menu appears click Select All then Clear to see if this solves your issue?

Thanks

Hi Callum,

 

Thank You for your response. Just did it and the results are the same :(. The app opens, but crashes and closes right after.

I'm not sure what to do now

Please can you tell me if Affinity Photo version 1.7.3 has ever run correctly or has it crashed every time since it updated to 1.7.3?

I first got it at 1.7.2.471 a few days ago and it had this issue. I tried downloading again the next day and got 1.7.3; ran into the same crash.

Affinity Designer runs just fine.

I have just updated to Affinity Photo 1.7.3.481 and having problems on startup. It begins to open the normal user interface, but then pauses for a few seconds and disappears. If I keep trying then sometimes it works. I have tried re-starting Windows 10 after the update. Also the reset as suggested earlier in this chain. It still fails most of the time.

See crash log in zip file attached to my post above 18 October

The logs are indicating that there is a problem with .NET on your computer. Please could you try the .NET repair tool found here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=30135

The repair tool claims to have done some repairs to .NET version 4.5.1, but I don't think it has made any difference. Tried restarting windows and running the repair tool again and got the same messages. Still Affinity Photo sometimes works and sometimes not. I get the impression that it always works the first time it is run after restarting windows, but I may not have done this often enough to be sure; this case seems to take longer.
