Paint.net 4.0.9 has been running happily on Win 8 all year - until today.
Today I get a windows dialog stating "a device attached to the system is not functioning"
this happens for paintdotnet.exe and pdnrepair.exe
Paint.Net does not uninstall.
Other than the monitor I am looking at and the wireless keyboard and mouse I am using, I don't have any other devices attached.
I have had this before but cannot recall the fix. Various fora show convoluted anti-virus/malware procedures, but are not related directly to paint.net.
Suggestions?
Fixes?
thanks
