Chainsaw Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 In the new version of Windows 11 22H2 with Smart app control enabled, it is not possible to install Paint.NET. I tried with the .exe and .msi. With .exe returns 1603 With the .msi "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Cortact your support personnel or package vendor." Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 See, now this is why I won't use computers until they work all the bugs out of them. Did you try turning off the Smart App control before installing Paint.NET and then turning it back on after? Also, sounds like you might have an existing paint.net installation that has become broken. Try this utility to remove the broken installation: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17588/fix-problems-that-block-programs-from-being-installed-or-removed Afterwards, you should be able to install paint.net anew.

Chainsaw Posted September 23, 2022 Author Share Posted September 23, 2022 (edited) It's a test computer. If you turn off Smart App control, it is not possible to turn it back on, just by reinstalling Windows again. A fresh install of Windows was done, it didn't have any version of Paint.NET on it before. Looking at the eventviewer, have these 2 messages at the time I tried to install. Application: paintdotnet.exe CoreCLR Version: 6.0.822.36306 .NET Version: 6.0.8 Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.

BoltBait Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Paint.NET is digitally signed: So, I'm not sure what's going on here. Might be necessary to contact Microsoft to figure this one out.
