StevenB Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Hello, I have been using Paint.net for awhile now and recently did a PC restore. I tried installing Paint.Net and it downloads, Then I download the NET framework and restart my PC. After that Paint.Net is nowhere to be seen on my System. I get no Error messages nothing. Can someone please help me soon as possible I rely on Paint.Net for work. Thanks Steven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Are you saying you successfully installed paint.net, but after a system reboot it is no longer installed?

I'm saying I installed the compressed installer then when it asked me to install the .NET framework and do the reboot it's not on my PC.

Try running the standalone .NET framework installer instead. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=53344 Then run the paint.net install afterwards.

toe_head2001 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Alright, but is the paint.net installer still asking you to install the .Net Framework?

Rick Brewster Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 You're on Windows .... 8.1? I think there's a bug in .NET where if you install .NET 4.6.x, it doesn't register itself correctly until you reboot. So then Paint.NET will still demand that it be installed. But if you reboot, things are fine.
