Hello, new here.
I've been using Paint.NET for over a year now, and I have to say I really enjoy it. It's easy and helps me with all of my photo-correction needs.
However, recently, Paint.NET refuses to open. I've taken a look at other topics here, and my problem seems to be the exact same as this one. It says that there is an unsolved problem, and Paint.NET needs to close. A shortcut to the file with the codes of the issue was placed on my desktop, and I have followed its directions and emailed the file to the crash Paint.NET helper. No reply yet.
However, I uninstalled Paint.NET, and tried reinstalling it, but it won't reinstall. When I download the newest version off of this site, unzip the file, and start the installation process, it stops and closes once it is "done", and nothinhg happens. I click on the install program again, and this time it gives me an error message saying that a file cannot be read. I have the option to Ignore, Retry, or Abort. If I choose to ignore, the installation disappears, and nothing happens. The message pops up again when I click Retry, and clicking Abort closes the program.
Finally, after I go through all of the above, a different (I think) Paint.NET installation program pops up, about five minutes later. I agree to the terms of use, the installation starts, and then I get this message:
So if anyone can help with this, I would really appreciate it. Yes, I believe I have the latest framework (for Windows XP), and yes, I believe I was using version 3.5.5 before the crash.
Thanks!
