aloften Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Description: When you right click on an image and click "open with" and then go to "Paint.net" windows is opening the file association menu that lets you choose a program and decide if it should always use that program to open that file type. In the past, it seemed to always open the image in paint.net. Im thinking maybe just need to reinstall... Date bug started: I think this has been happening since pdn v:5.0.2 update but Im not entirely sure. Not a super big deal, I mean like...I can just open paint.net and drag the image in. Just mentioning this because it seems to be a bug that may occur after updating from an older version to the current version on windows 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Broadway Posted March 11 Solution Share Posted March 11 Works perfectly fine here. Windows 11 with paint.net 5.0.2. I notice that Windows 11 from time to time asks for confirmation of file-type-associations. It did so with *.pdn-files, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aloften Posted March 11 Author Share Posted March 11 (edited) Weeeeird. Its working now for me too. I tried like 20 times yesterday and got the bug every time. I do a lot of graphic design at my job and for raster work I always lean toward pdn over photoshop so I ran into that issue a lot yesterday but yeah...its uh...its working here too now. Must have been a random windows thing. Im not sure how to mark this "not a problem" so Ill just mark your comment as solution.

PDN 3.5.11 is an ancient version of the app, and old versions are not available anyway, so this is not a feasible solution.

Pixel RF Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 (edited) The Paint.NET v.5.0.2 really lacks such options: Edited March 29 by Pixel RF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Still, it's bad advice that isn't correct and can't be applied anyway. Recommending people to install an ancient version is not okay, and it goes against the forum's clearly stated rules regarding old versions. @Pixel RF, do not give this type of advice, this is your only warning. OP has already solved the issue, there's no need to continue this discussion.
