Sounds like a misconfiguration of your Google Chrome. Try any other browser, and see if the issue persists.

 

After much running around, resetting my chrome settings, clearing my history, uninstalling paint.net, reinstalling paint.net, I have come across the nugget that is being a thorn in my side. Sadly, it's the plugin installer that comes with BoltBait's plugin packs. Windows Defender hates it for some reason. I have no idea why as my knowledge about what is bashing its head against the wall on computers is not even a scrap of existence, but I just went ahead and downloaded the .zip file. And that worked. So, everything is back to operating standard.

 

Shoutouts for BoltBait and toe_head2001. Thank you for helping me. I appreciate the advice and assistance on this matter. 😊

And I just found that little tidbit of juicy knowledge concerning admin permissions for the plugin installer on the thread for BoltBait's plugin pack. Sorry for all the trouble. I should have read further down. 😅 Geez, this blonde moment is lasting longer than it should today.
