It wont install PDN

[Gigabyte]

It gives me error like this:

There was an error while installing Paint.NET (1603)

WTH

Gigabyte,

For a 1603 error, try downloading the current installation pack,

and installing manually. (Rather than using auto-update.)

Choose the Custom install option, install to a non-default destination

Why would installing the WIA Automation Library help at all...?

[Gigabyte]

It stopped working when i installed (new) Windows 7 x86 Ultimate over my Windows XP Professional OS. Ive tried portable versions, previous versions.. nothing worked.

Help? Rick? Anybody?

Gigabyte,

Do you still have a Paint.NET program folder?

If so, have you tried running PdnRepair?

Have you checked out this thread?

OMG i forgot to say that it wont uninstall that "Uncompleted instalation folder"..

Download and use windows installer cleanup; it'll erase all remains of PDN off of your hard disk, and you can then reinstall without error. It works; I had this exact same error not too long ago.

It dont want to install WIC.. umm

[jerry533482]

It doesn't do any harm to your computer, it just removes leftover files from failed installs so it doesn't interfere with windows. I honestly haven't tried anything else, but I think WIC may be the only way to fix your problem. It's a very lightweight app, only about .3 megabytes of install space required.

Because you are the same person that thinks using a older version of paint.net won't help, I'm going to ignore your question.

EDIT: Alright, instead of being a *******, the error that i got when installing according to the temp file, was that it couldn't register WIAAUT.dll, because it isn't included in paint.net installer, so i had to manually install it.

Solved it! Manually installed PdN .5.2
