Yes it's very strange I've never had this issue before in any other program! The problem is that the drive doesn't even show up in the list of available drives from the File > Open menu, so it doesn't matter where the picture is on the mapped drive. (See pictures) This drive is also mapped for me, since this is on a work computer, so I'm not 100% sure exactly how it works. Windows Explorer drive list: Paint.NET drive list from File > Open menu:

@Rick Brewster Sorry for the huge delay, completely forgot about posting this! I'm using the Classic version. I tried enabling Win32 long paths, then restarted Paint.NET and my computer, but the problem still persists. I'm now using paint.net 4.1.5 (Final 4.105.6913.325).

@Rick Brewster yes. This happens with no other programs that I have installed.

From the File > Open menu, Paint.NET cannot see my mapped network drives in the My Computer list. When I try to right click on a file in this mapped network drive (U:\ drive), I get an error (see PaintNETError.png screenshot). I've also included a picture of how my normal Windows Explorer My Computer looks like, as a comparison. To get around this I have to copy files to any other drive, edit it, save it, and move it back to my network share. Running Paint.NET as Administrator does not fix this problem. EDIT: I should also note that this is not new since upgrading to Paint.NET 4.1, this has occurred since (at least) 4.0.14.
