MorilloStevens Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Hello. My problem is that uninstall Paint.NET by mistake and now when I want to reinstall I get an error. Appears: The feature you are trying to use is on network resource That is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder Containing the installation package 'PaintDotNet_1692900670.msi' in the box below. Help me please, I want to use Paint.NET Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 The incomplete removal of the previous version has likely left remnants of the application on your system. These should be removed prior to re-installation. For help with the process, follow this link: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/692-install-update-or-uninstall-trouble-read-this/ In that thread read item #3 and then the second post where the Windows Installer CleanUp utility is mentioned. That is what you have to use to remove any bits of Paint.NET that still reside on your system. Be careful with this utility - it is very powerful. Following complete removal - try downloading a fresh version from here: http://www.dotpdn.com/downloads/pdn.html If you have further problems, please post here again. 1 Quote ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ego Eram Reputo Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 That's a file association issue. Here's how to change it (Win7/Vista - I guessed): http://www.winvistaclub.com/t19.html Quote ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
