Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.
Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of Inkscape 1.2.2 (32-bit).
For those interested in downloading the most recent release of Inkscape (32-bit) or reading our review, simply click here.
All old versions distributed on our website are completely virus-free and available for download at no cost.

What's new in this version:
Crash fixes:
- Inkscape no longer freezes the whole desktop when rotating objects with snapping activated under certain conditions
- Converting an object with a stroke set as 'unset' / 'none', but with markers on the non-existing stroke, no longer leads to a crash
Bug fixes:
General:
- Symbols that contain a clipping path or mask no longer cause the Symbols dialog to create a high processor load
- The keyboard shortcut that is meant to scale the selection by 1 screen pixel now does so again
- Raster images that are opened with Inkscape now end up in the page area even when the document origin is set to the bottom left corner
- Dithering (for smooth gradients) is now disabled by default (even if it was enabled before you update to 1.2.2), because it was causing a loss of performance while drawing
Dialogs:
- The 'Export' and 'Align and distribute' dialogs are no longer confused about what area to export / what type of item to align
- In the same dialog, tooltips now reliably show up when hovering over any of the buttons
- Clarified wording of an option shown when importing SVG files
Import / Export:
- OpenClipart import option is now available on Windows and in the AppImage, and the potentially missing Python library BeautifulSoup is now a recommended package for Debian packaging
- Several issues in the DXF14 export have been fixed:
- Documents with non-uniform scale are exported correctly
- When importing a DXF file created by Inkscape into Fusion 360, the warning message about missing units is gone now (given the SVG document uses "real-world" units such as mm or in)
- A leftover debug message was removed
- The TIFF export now supports transparency
- DPI attribute is preserved for JPG and TIFF raster export
- PNG files now use the correct file permissions on Linux (previously, exported files were only accessible to the user who created them, which caused problems when doing web development)
Styles:
- Saving markers that are compatible to SVG 1.1 now works for both marker direction and marker color at once
- Objects with hairline strokes no longer lose that style when grouping or pasting
- Filtered objects whose filters make use of the 'Morphology' filter are no longer cut off
Tools:
- The Measure tool now indicates correct positions and sizes for shapes (stars, spirals, rectangles)using the tool for the first time.
Note about snap packages:
- It is no longer possible to install the Inkscape snap with the --classic option. If you need functionality that is unavailable in the standard snap package (being able to add custom filter packs, custom extensions communicating with other programs on the system / requiring system-wide dependencies, …), please choose a different packaging format.
Windows-specific Fixes:
- Extensions Manager and Clipart import work again on Windows. This fix was already available in 1.2.1, if you downloaded it after July 19
- The Text tool no longer crashes when selecting some specific fonts that have been installed multiple times in different file formats
- Inkscape 1.2.2 can now be built for Windows on Arm
Command line:
- Trailing or duplicate semicolons no longer cause an action list command to fail
Improvements for development / deployment:
- Automated Windows builds work again
- Windows builds succeed again in CLANG64 environments
Extension bug fixes:
- Bugfixes in particular extensions
- Color extensions can work on patterns again
- The extension Render > Barcode > QR Code can now create QR codes with sharp edges (as opposed to slightly rounded edges as previously) even when using the extension from inside Inkscape (as opposed to from the command line)
- The Hershey Text extension now warns about manual kerning instead of crashingextensions
- Saving a self-made font as SVG font using Extensions > Typography > 3 - Convert Glyph Layers to SVG Font now works again when one of the characters is the apostrophe (single quote) characterextensions
Improvements that apply to all extensions:
- If a malformed SVG document is fed into an extension, the user is warned about it instead of causing an extension crash
