Shealuna Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 I just downloaded paint.NET. When I click on the icon to try and install it, I instead I get a pop up telling me I need to buy WinZip! Does this mean I have to purchase WinZip in order to install paint.NET? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 No. Right-click on the zip file -> Open With -> Windows Explorer. If that doesn't work, try 7-Zip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately it's telling me I have the wrong Vista. It says I need Vista SP1, whatever that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Go to Windows Update and install everything. SP1 and SP2 are in there. You should always install the updates for Windows. You probably have it turned off, which is a huge security risk -- you'll probably get viruses unless you turn it back on.
