Hmm,looks like the same crash BoltBait had here, http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=2275

That ThreadBackgroundMode has been a real pain with respect to this

[Rick Brewster]

This will be fixed in the next build.

[BoltBait]

This will be fixed in the next build.

Which build is that?

Because I think it just happened again.

[Rick Brewster]

This is when you're exiting Paint.NET ?

[BoltBait]

Yes.

Run Paint.net.

As soon as the red X appears, click it.

"Dispose() was called on a thread other than the one that this object was created on"? Interesting...

[Rick Brewster]

Ok, yeah. I changed it to be a Debug.Assert() in the finalizer (aka destructor) but then still called Dispose(false). In a situation like this, when the app is shutting down, it doesn't matter that the object didn't get cleaned up so I'm going to change it to just not care.

So ... next build for sure

[Rick Brewster]

The reason the object has to be cleaned up on the same thread it was created on is due to the way Vista handles its new thread background mode settings. You call SetThreadPriority() with THREAD_BACKGROUND_BEGIN, and then later with THREAD_BACKGROUND_END, but you can only use these flags on the current thread. I can't set some other thread to operate in background mode.
