Configure Affinity Photo2

Post by Dukwski »

Hi
I've just downloaded XnView MP & so far am pleased with it. However, I have been unable to work out how to add Affinity Photo2 (AP2) in Configure Programs

I believe Photo2 is now an app, rather than a program in the old style. So far as I can make out, the path is C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsAppsAffinityPhoto2.exe (possibly with \AffinityPhoto2.exe on the end)

However, when I try that in configure programs I get The file cannot be accessed by the system

AP2 is set as the default program for several file types including .orf & .jpg

I read a previous post (from ages ago) where it said to paste in the path above. Tried that. Didn't work.

Any help greatly appreciated. I can obviously still open an Explorer window & open the picture that way, but that's ever so tedious!

Thanks
Dukwski

Just been further messing around. Closed XnView & reopened it. Tried open with associated program & it opened in AP2!!
So, ignore previous message
