ThePeoplesChampion Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) Background: I got a blue screen when installing an update to Paint.NET, and since then I haven't been able to get it to open. So I tried uninstalling, which didn't work. I tried reinstalling, by downloading the latest version from the website, but again was unable to get this to work. So I am trapped, unable to use Paint.NET atm. Problem: Both the uninstall & reinstall give me a messaging saying I'm missing "PaintDotNet_x64_332577892.msi" (from the "Staging" folder), so I think this may be what's causing it to not work. Here's screenshots of what happens; On uninstall On reinstall (trying to install new version, from the website) Edited September 26, 2016 by ThePeoplesChampion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Your previous install became broken some how. Use this utility to remove that previous installation: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/mats/program_install_and_uninstall Afterwards, install paint.net anew. 1 Quote (September 25th, 2023) Sorry about any broken images in my posts. I am aware of the issue. My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I now don't have to resort to using ordinary Paint anymore haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
