Problem to create a link to Affinity Photo 2 in XnView MP

Post by christophercollier »

Hello, I wanted to create a link in XnView Mp to open the images directly in Affinity Photo 2. I went to find the executable file and I inserted it but unfortunately it does not work while the link for affinity Photo Ver 1.10 works correctly. Can you help me ? Thanks.

what 'link' are you talking about?
there are few options:
  • Open with
    open via 'Open with' or Alt+1-9 shortcut
    1. Open with > Configure programs...
    2. add Photo.exe, no arguments required
  • Associated program
    open via double click (in Browser) or F3
    1. Associate Affinity with desired file type
    2. in XnViewMP change 'Open with' from 'XnView' to 'Associated program' for Images in (Settings > File list > Custom filter)
