JScope Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Hi I've been using Paint.net for quite a while and it's always updated with no issues up until recently; I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the latest version but am getting this error below, any help would be greatly appreciated! I had a look through the forums but didn't see anything specific to this: System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'PaintDotNet.SystemLayer.FileSystem' threw an exception. ---> System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Users\jscop\AppData\Local\paint.net\SessionData\1178967519' is denied. at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath) at System.IO.FileSystemEnumerableIterator`1.CommonInit() at System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(String path, String searchPattern) at PaintDotNet.SystemLayer.FileSystem..cctor() in D:\src\pdn\src\SystemLayer\FileSystem.cs:line 513 --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at PaintDotNet.SystemLayer.FileSystem.TryDeleteFile(String filePath) at PaintDotNet.Setup.InstallingPage.<DoInstallation>d__48.MoveNext() in D:\src\pdn\src\SetupFrontEnd\InstallingPage.cs:line 866 at PaintDotNet.Threading.Tasks.IterativeTask.IterativeTaskAnon.<OnExecute>d__1.MoveNext() in D:\src\pdn\src\Core\Threading\Tasks\IterativeTask.cs:line 33 at PaintDotNet.Threading.Tasks.IterativeTask`1.<>c__DisplayClass10_0.<StepTask>b__0() in D:\src\pdn\src\Core\Threading\Tasks\IterativeTask`1.cs:line 74 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I'm wondering of your virus scanner is blocking access to that directory. Quote Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and a Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Windows Defender has a new option, "Controlled folder access." Make sure it's disabled. It's a stupid feature that breaks a ton of legitimate applications.
