I tried paint.net.4.0.13.install.exe and paint.net.4.0.14.install.exe the only difference is in pdnSetupShim.log.
4.0.13:
Launching paint.net installer. bRebootRequired=false
Done. nReturnVal=-1
Sleep(1000)
--- Exiting, nReturnVal=ffffffff
4.0.14:
Launching paint.net installer. bRebootRequired=false
OurCreateProcess: CreateProcessW() returned FALSE, error = 5
OurCreateProcess: dwRetVal = -1
Done. nReturnVal=-1
Sleep(1000)
--- Exiting, nReturnVal=ffffffff
It is Windows 10 , 1067 64bit.
The scheduled task is to provide some sort of an auto update process for a golden master template.
a better alternative if i could use the builtin updater in an automated way. is this possible?
