Did you run Paint.NET from within that command prompt? Otherwise it won't inherit any environment variable changes. (It's also not necessary to use an admin command prompt btw)

 

But, since we don't see DOTNET_TieredCompilation anyway, I'm not really convinced

Yea, I ran PDN from within that command prompt. 

I exited and ran cmd.exe (non elevated).... still same results.... cmd prompt in the foreground, mad PDN in the background.

Tried this and it did not work:

 

set DOTNET_TieredCompilation=1
set DOTNET_ReadyToRun=0
CD "C:\Program Files\Paint.NET"
paintdotnet

Creating a exclusion in Sentinel One (S1) solves the problem:

 

  • Exclusion type = Path
  • OS = Windows
  • Path = C:\Program Files\Paint.NET
  • Check Including Subfolders
  • Check Exclude path for alerts and mitigation
  • Select Interoperability

Needs to be done from S1 Console.

I have Sentinel one, the exclusion was added, but it did not seem to fix it.  Perhaps I have a variety of issues.  (edit - reinstalled old MSI, turned off update checks)

Hmmm. I wonder how users of the Windows Store version of Paint.NET can add a Sentinel One exclusion?

Is there a suitable 'Exclusion type' or are you expected to find the path for the Store app  (not recommended to try).

It's not hard to get, it's just in C:\Program Files\WindowsApps which you should be able to access from an administrator command prompt. But it will change whenever there's an update because it has the version in it.

Microsoft do make it hard.

I cannot open the folder without additional effort that is beyond many users.

This is the Administrator's view:

Another S1 user here with same issue.  Cant get support on sunday to get the exclusion added to the console by work either


You could temporarily reinstall v5.0.13 to allow you to keep using Paint.NET: https://github.com/paintdotnet/release/releases/tag/v5.0.13

 

Use the portable version if 'work' has also prevented you from doing any installations on the PC.

Posted (edited)

Thanks for the help guys and suggestion to downgrade to 5.0.13. My company recently added SentinelOne to our work computers, too, and it broke the MS Store version of Paint.NET that I had. Some additional observations I haven't seen anyone else mention in this thread: 

  1. To install 5.0.13, I had to use the x64 installer instead of the anycpu installer to avoid the error above.
  2. Attempting the portable installs, I can confirm that 5.0.13 works on my system while 5.1 does not.
  3. The anycpu installers for both 5.0.13 and 5.1 trigger the same error for me:
The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application.

 

Am able to continue with my work now, thanks again. Hopefully SentinelOne fixes their false positives sooner rather than later.

Adding that 5.1 also does not work with Sonicwall Capture Client as the EDR (it uses SentinelOne under the hood, so that makes sense, of course).  Rolled back to 5.0.13 (x64 installer) and everything is fine.

Hi all. I am also dealing with this, (I also have sentinel one) so thank you google search.

I installed 5.0.13 yesterday, and it worked as a temp fix. Unchecked updates.
As of this morning, it is hanging up again.
edit: Uninstalling it, I find out that it was 5.1 again.... not sure how that happened.

AND THAT WORKED!

Hi Team,

I have the same issue with 5.1 version, crash on opening.

I will test adding into SentinelOne the executable into exclusion list and see if it works (but strange because SentinelOne didnt appear any notification related to Paint.NET).

Thanks.

So, I see what is going on, not sure why, but 5.0.13 is autoupdating to 5.1, even though it is unchecked:

This is a work PC, right? That might be something your IT department or network admin is pushing down. Paint.NET can't auto-update "invisibly" like that unless you have the Microsoft Store release installed.

It doesn't appear to actually be updating. It happens too quickly, and as you say, invisibly.

 

Could the @gappvembe have both the Store and the Classic version installed at the same time? Would that cause this?
