Topaz should never have started Studio. It has some fine uses, but easily becomes a problem. I had bought ALremix from them and it was in studio. Nothing you buy now ever goes to filters just studio. I had a studio update and lost Alremix. Contacted Topaz and no luck, no answers. Was going to reinstall Studio, but not with out hearing from them. If the Remix download had gone into filters and Studio, no problem. They are so afraid of people misusing their products that the no longer give registration numbers. Seems that Topaz shot themselves.

I agree. As a long time Topaz user, I will not work in Studio. In Photoshop, I would create new layers to use individual filters, adjust opacity and achieve a final result. With Studio, the more times it opens, the greater a chance it may hang. Plus, why do I need an alternative to Photoshop when I already use the Gold Standard.

I think Studio is more "modern" than plugins for classic programs.... perhaps it is that I am not modern and still prefer working with my old friends PSPro and PSE. I also have Affinity, which is perhaps superior to both.... do I use Affinity... Yes, but seldom.... most is PSPro and PSE [for clone brush].

I with confidence logged into my Topaz... aaa where are my new purchases... OH! in Studio account. OK, S# for plugins are in Topaz... but in Studio it only shows my purchases.... NO S#s ! ?

But when adding new studio... an update.... "appear as zero charge" ... The "studio" tools like Ai-remix, appear under "Adjustments" on the right side of the studio.

Again ... you have a classic plugin account and also a Studio account ... me, I like a S# .... but I save all my purchases using copy paste into Word.
