sbbots Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Every time I use Paint.Net on a Windows 10 PC, it creates a folder on the desktop called "Paint.Net". This didn't happen until a few updates ago. Is there a way to turn this off? I keep a clean desktop and I do not understand the need for this to be created every time I run the application.

toe_head2001 Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 I've never heard of that happening before. So, if you open Paint.NET and immediately close it, the new folder appears on your desktop? Is there anything inside the folder? Quote (September 25th, 2023) Sorry about any broken images in my posts. I am aware of the issue.

Rick Brewster Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Paint.NET doesn't do this. Could be a plugin? Quote 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...

I uninstalled Paint.Net, completely cleaned it from the registry, reinstalled and it still does this. Edited June 26, 2021 by sbbots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toe_head2001 Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Please post the diagnostic information found within Paint.NET.
