PinkOmega Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 So...I'm searching for answers here for hours now, but I just cant solve the problem. The problem is in the title, and I do this after I install the latest version of paint.net:1 - I extract the files to my desktop, 2 - I launch the installer, it says it is installing. 3 - The ''installing'' window closes and another one saying ''The following will be installed:.Net framework 4.6.2 and paint.net'' 4 - I click ok, a new window opens and it says it is extracting some files. And thats it. It immediately closes after it '' extracts '' the files, and nothing more happens. I tried searching for a fix but I just couldnt...Also, I downloaded the latest version from the official paint.net site, and .Net framework 4.6.2 from the official site too (because as I mentioned in this post, the installer just closes) So yeah...Nothing happens, and also i'm using windows 8.1 64bits Any solutions? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkOmega Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 By the way, some extra information: I'm actually trying to download paint.NET only because I need to open a PDN file, I searched up some things about that and apparently I could also open the .PDN files on GIMP, but it just says ''unknown file type''...

toe_head2001 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 You're saying the standalone installer for the .Net Framework v4.6.2 also closes? 1 Quote My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkOmega Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 No, only the paint.NET installer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Ok then, install the .Net Framework, and then install paint.net. Quote My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkOmega Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 I already did this...Still the same thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 You successfully installed the .Net Framework v4.6.2? Please double check. The paint.net installer is still saying it (the .Net Framework) needs to be installed?

PinkOmega Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 Yeah, I did installed the .net framework v4.6.2 succcessfully. It dont actually says that it need to be installed, it asks me to download it through the paint.net installer, and as I said before, it instantly closes after extracting the files for framework 4.6.2 even tough I have it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
