gruntlord6 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Hi, I've been using Paint.net for awhile and when prompted attempted to perform an update, but I get the following error: I've tried numerous things to resolve this, including uninstalling and clearing out the temp folder but I've had no luck. For now I'm using version 3.5 until I get this resolved. Here are my system specs: Operating System: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 10586) (10586.th2_release.160126-1819) Language: English (Regional Setting: English) Processor: AMD FX-8320 Eight-Core Processor (8 CPUs), ~3.5GHz Memory: 8192MB RAM Available OS Memory: 8090MB RAM Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 Manufacturer: NVIDIA Chip type: GeForce GTX 460 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, it's been a long time since I've seen a windows upgrade break an installer (and I'm talking 16 bit to 64 bit jump here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
