hookyboysb Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 When I try to open or save a file, Paint.NET crashes. I even tried 3.5, and it didn't work. Should I just try to use a different program, or is there a way to fix this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hookyboysb Posted September 2, 2009 Author Share Posted September 2, 2009 There is no crash log. Paint.NET just freezes, and I have to close it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Instead of closing it, try pressing the Esc key. Does it come back? Quote Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and a Free Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 What are your system stats? Do you have the latest version of the .NET framework?

hookyboysb Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 Paint.NET worked fine before, so I'm sure it's none of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Just answer the question, or this thread gets locked. When you go to the doctor, do your conversations go like this? YOU: Doctor, I have a pain. DOC: What kind of pain? Where? YOU: Ugh! You mean you can't just answer my question? DOC: No, I need to know exactly what's going on to make an accurate diagnosis. YOU: Fine. My stomach hurts. DOC: Does it hurt here? YOU: No, it doesn't hurt now! DOC: When does it hurt? YOU: Do you really need to know? DOC: Yes, I really need to know. YOU: Okay, it hurts when I have dinner. DOC: What's your diet like? YOU: Oh, you don't need to know that. It was fine before. See how ludicrous that is? You're asking us for help, but you're not giving us information. Quote  The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...

hookyboysb Posted September 5, 2009 Author Share Posted September 5, 2009 Okay, I'll answer the question. Specs: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5000+ 2.6 GHz, 2 GB RAM Physical Address Extension How do I check what version of the .NET framework I have?

Sarkut Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 hookyboysb: Might as well let us know what OS you're using as well, XP, Vista, etc. If you are using Vista find your .NET version this way: Start orb > Control Panel > Classic View(left pane) > Programs and Features. Scroll down to Microsoft .NET Framework. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoltBait Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 That probably means that there's some file in that directory that is giving Paint.NET fits. You can try deleting all files in that default directory to see if it fixes the problem. Even hidden files. BTW, if you press ENTER instead of ESC, it will save the file. But, you'll have to find it and rename it later. Quote Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and a Free Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
