All well and good, but I can't find the path to the Affinity 3 executable on Windows. THAT seems to be the problem.

OK, I finally managed it. The Affinity executable in Windows, at least on my system, is saved in ProgramFiles\WindowsApps\Canva.Affinity... etc.etc. You probably will hit a stone wall if you try to open the WindowsApps folder in Explorer, as it is protected. The way I managed to get the path was to run Affinity, open Task Manager, locate the Affinity process, and copy the path from its properties. I then pasted this into XNView's Open With/Configure Programs dialog box. Voila.
