kiarfuzzy Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Can't update to 4.0.21 or 4.0.20, the installer just doesn't work. Tried using the in-app updater and manual update. Even uninstalled 4.0.19 and tried a fresh install. The files are copied on C:/Users /.../Temp than it extracts something in D:/1aa3kdmngi223 (random numbers / letters) and the installer stops, or better said doesn't really start.

Pixey Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 @kiarfuzzy Welcome to the forum 1. Please can you give us a little more information. Like, what system you are using. i.e. Win 10, or 8, etc. ? 2. Also, are you downloading from our website, for the Classic version from here.

kiarfuzzy Posted June 29, 2018 Author Share Posted June 29, 2018 Can't install .NET Frameworks 4.7.2, same problem something is extracted in D:/1dadafd113fdsfsg then the installer shows this error: The .NET Framework 4.7.2 is not supported on this operating system. I'm using Windows 10 and tried with paint.net installers from official website and other software sharing websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 If the .NET Framework 4.7.2 is not supported on your operating system, it sounds like you are not caught up with all Windows Updates.

kiarfuzzy Posted June 29, 2018 Author Share Posted June 29, 2018 (edited) Yes, that's true, i've turned off windows updates right after i last installed it, a year ago. I don't want to have to wait for "updates" to install each time I turn off my PC, just to destroy my PC and make it lag for no reason (happened too many times, the more "updates" it installed the worse my PC behaved) Edited June 29, 2018 by kiarfuzzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 And, now you're paying the price. If you want to run Paint.NET, you'll have to install ALL of the Windows updates.

kiarfuzzy Posted June 29, 2018 Author Share Posted June 29, 2018 Guess I'll stick to 4.0.19 than... A'int worth enabling windows updates for what 4.0.21 has to offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 "I don't want to install any updates, but I still want everything that the updates have in them." *facepalm* Total waste of time. I'm closing this thread and any others you create where you ask for ... anything. 1 The Paint.NET Blog: https://blog.getpaint.net/ Donations are always appreciated! https://www.getpaint.net/donate.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
