[PDN crash after update to 4.0.6]

Hi all,

 

I'm hoping that you will be able to help me out. I have just installed the latest version of Paint.NET v 4.0.6 and left PDN to start up again after the update has completed. However PDN did not start up but gave an error (see below).

 

 

I tried un-installing PDN, restarting the laptop and re-installed but it still the error persisted. I tried the option to Run as Administrator but that did not help either.

 

Any other suggestions on getting my trusty paint.net working again?
