Thanks guys - this did it for me! Appreciate the quick response

Been watching this thread for a couple of days with no obvious response. Perhaps this is a newbie question but I am getting the same error message: Crash log for Paint.NET v2.6 (Final Release build 2.6.2244.18680) Time of crash: 3/1/2006 4:28:12 PM OS version: 5.1.2600.131072 Service Pack 2 Workstation x86 .NET Framework version: 2.0.50727.42 x86 Processor count: 1 Physical memory: 511 MB Exception details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the registry key 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Paint.NET' is denied. at Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.Win32Error(Int32 errorCode, String str) at Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.CreateSubKey(String subkey, RegistryKeyPermissionCheck permissionCheck, RegistrySecurity registrySecurity) at Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.CreateSubKey(String subkey) at PaintDotNet.SystemLayer.Settings.CreateSettingsKey(Boolean writable) at PaintDotNet.SystemLayer.Settings.SetObject(String key, Object value) at PaintDotNet.SystemLayer.Settings.SetBoolean(String key, Boolean value) at PaintDotNet.DocumentWorkspace.AlphaBlendingChangedHandler(Object sender, EventArgs e) at PaintDotNet.DocumentEnvironment.OnAlphaBlendingChanged() at PaintDotNet.DocumentEnvironment.PerformAllChanged() at PaintDotNet.DocumentWorkspace..ctor() at PaintDotNet.MainForm.InitializeComponent() at PaintDotNet.MainForm..ctor(String[] args) at PaintDotNet.Startup.Start() at PaintDotNet.Startup.Main(String[] args) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks G
