earthyp Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) Sorry if this is elementary but I don't have tech support and I am not computer literate. I went through the download process and ran the setup.exe but I can't find the Compressed Folder it says I should get in the Documentation. I ran it twice. Now I have a bunch of other programs on my machine but not paint.net. Snd, it is not listed in My Programs Help?

nitenurse79 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) The compressed folder should have been what you downloaded (that is if you got it from the right place) inside the compressed folder should be the pdn.exe, Depending on your OS it should be in your downloads. You can find the proper download here direct download link Edited August 24, 2012 by nitenurse79 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthyp Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 I went to http://www.getpaint.net/download.html Clicked the big blue Download button. It took me to http://www.wisedownloads.com/go/pdfcreator?creative_id=mediumagg&source=google_pdfcreator-display-US-336x280_gif_borders&subid=download&subid2=www.getpaint.net I clicked the big blue download button. I got a window with questions about installing other programs. Accepted them all. Then nothing. I appreciate your time and support. -Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitenurse79 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) You clearly clicked on the wrong link and got malware with it, the link in my post above (this one direct download link is the right place to download it I would reccomend removing what ever it was you downloaded and get it from the link I have given you. Go for the option to save and then run the exe afterwards Hope this is of help for you. Edited August 24, 2012 by nitenurse79 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
