From sleek black design to the panels and tools, the applications are identical in many ways. Affinity Photo and Photoshop are very similar in layout. Many businesses use Adobe because of its huge software range, universities teach Adobe courses, and it’s a good universal program for creators to collaborate with across the globe. Adobe Photoshop has more longevity than Affinity Photo because of its ubiquitous use and support of the huge Adobe family of applications. At $49.99 for either Windows or Mac, this software is an affordable price. Affinity Photo is available as a one-time purchase, unlike Adobe Photoshop. It has a few more tools than what Affinity offers. Overall, Photoshop inches out over Affinity Photo. Thanks for any help, Affinity Photo 2 is my 'go to' photo program, so I'm very confused why it would be suddenly not working.If you’re in a rush, here is the summary of the comparison. Do you have instructions from removing it from the registry so that I can install the latest version? How do I get the program to start, or uninstall when it is not in the control panel. I tried to download the latest verstion and run the installation file, and it tells me that it tis alread installed, so why does it not show in Control Panel? I've tried to start it from the start menu. I've tried to start Affinity Photo 2 by double clicking the icon, right clicking and selecting open. and I have Adobe Photoshop CS2 installed (a really old version). In control panel I have Affinity Photo v 1. I tried to start Photo V1, but it won't start either. I still have Photo version 1.10 and I almost uninstalled it, but cancelled the operation.

The program won't start, it is not listed in my control panel to uninstall it.

I've no problems with Affinity Photo 2 up until now. I'm using Windows 10 professional on my desktop computer.
