I've tried everything in both threads already, and already got it working through LiberKey. I can't find any fix. It probably has something to do with the fact that my computer got screwed up about a year ago and I had to reinstall Windows via a USB because my computer never shipped with any discs. But what's important here is I got the app working.

The only logical fix I saw to this was someone using LiberKey to download a portable version of PDN. Will do that until the installer can get itself straight. Thanks for the assistance.

That didn't help me. Again, the only logs I see are PdnMsiInstall and pdnSetupshim: This is the PdnMsiinstall: === Logging started: 7/30/2014 20:31:46 === 32-bit MSI may not be installed on 64-bit OS. === Logging stopped: 7/30/2014 20:31:47 === And this is the pdnSetupshim: --- paint.net SetupShim starting, lpCmdLine='/suppressReboot', nCmdShow=10 CoInitialize(NULL) returned 0 Checking OS requirement bIsWin7SP1 = true bResult = true EnsureOSRequirement() returned 0 Called EnsureTrustedInstallerIsEnabledAsync() Checking .NET requirement bIsNetfx45Installed = true bIsSupportedNetfxInstalled = true bIsNetfxInstallerPresent = true PreInstallPrompt() returned true InstallNetfx() returned 0 Launching paint.net installer. bRebootRequired=false I didn't find anything about Paint.Net in my registry. Any further help would be greatly appreciated. EDIT: is there a manual install? Like PDN compiled into a ZIP folder that I can just extract?

I hope that I can finally resolve this issue. It all started when PDN prompted me to update to 4.0.2 a few weeks ago when I opened it. After closing and attempting to update, I got fatal error 1603 and it closed. PDN was then no where to be found on my PC. After looking through the logs, I found one error - actually, the only log that had anything in it: "32 bit MSI may not be installed on 64 bit OS." I've looked through everything, read all the fixes, tried almost all of them (trustedinstaller download says the file is invalid, so I can't use that) ran as admin, installed .NET 4.5.2, repaired it, etc, etc, etc. I've been through so many restarts and whatnot. PDN has chosen to fail when I need it the most, and I'm not going to waste $100+ on a 32 bit OS just so I can install a program. I've also googled everywhere to no avail. So please, can someone help me? Like I said, I really need PDN right now.

I'd like to think the way you told me to use the EXE like I don't know that was also "rude and unhelpful." And excuse me but I'm new here so I didn't know where to open a thread. And thanks for directing me.

Can someone please explain to me how to install this on a 64 bit OS? The application keeps failing with "Error 1603" and all the log says is it can't install on a 64 bit OS. I asked for help last time and all I got was "use the exe not the msi" but I'm NOT USING THE MSI. I desperately need PDN to work right now, so help, please. Any ACTUAL help this time would be appreciated.

I DID. But the MSI gives that error resulting in the EXE giving me fatal error 1603. EDIT: Simply put, the EXE is failing because the MSI it's supposed to execute won't install on a 64 bit os.

Won't install, just gives me a 1603 error. Checked the log and this was all I saw: "32-bit MSI may not be installed on 64-bit OS." So is there a way I can get it to install? I really need the application. Current specs: Win. 7 Home Premium SP1, 64 Bit Intel Pentium Dual Core E5700@3GHz Nvidia GeForce GT640 2GB 2/4GB RAM (Current Amount)
