    You are using a old version of paint.net, and you must update to the most recent version.
     
    Settings -> Updates -> Check Now

    No. Paint.NET is not open source, and does not use a libre license.
     
    You can find the license here:

    Edit -> Paste into New Image (Ctrl + Alt + V)
     
    There's no other way.
     
     
    Create a template file with your preferred resolution, and start paint.net by opening that file.

    You can use the Signature Stamp for watermarking.

    If you want to watermark a whole batch of images, you should IrfanView instead.

    toe_head2001's post in Brush size is now smaller in 5.0 was marked as the answer   
    Yes, there seems to be a difference.
    Both of these are Brush Size 2; Hardness 75%
     

     
    @Bluespide
    You can use a decimal value for brush size, such as 2.3. Does that help?
     
    Revert to an old version should be a last resort, and even then, a temporary solution.

    toe_head2001's post in Cannot open Google Photo in Paint.Net was marked as the answer   
    Google Photos doesn't allow you to download the original image files you uploaded. Instead you get a modified/compressed copy.
     
    If want/need an original, you need to retain a backup of it outside of Google Photos.

    toe_head2001's post in How to print actual size was marked as the answer   
    The popular quick-and-easy option is to paste the image into Microsoft Word, and then print from there.
     
     
    Another good option is to use IrfanView, which has lots of printing customization:

    toe_head2001's post in BMP 32-bit alpha files not compatible with win32 LoadImage() was marked as the answer   
    In Paint.NET v4.2, many formats (including BMP) were switched over to the newer WIC encoders/decoders.
     
    You may need to start using WIC in your application, or re-encode your bitmap files with a different program.
