Bozz65 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Hi, I'm back because I'm desperated. I asked my question on MS Community forums but no any one known the same issue as I have... This is what I obtain when I try to install Paint.NET on my Win 7 64 bits with MS Framework 4.5.1. http://www.partage-fichiers.com/upload/n9smmrfm/ Before I installed MS Framework 4.5.1, Paint.NET has well worked. I restored my system image which didn't own Paint.NET installed, this is why I want to reinstall it. I don't understand where to find the ".msi" file... May someone help me ? Or indicate to me where ask this question otherwise ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 The installer is unable to find something it needs. What location are you installing to? The default location? Have you tried installing the beta version of 4.0?

Bozz65 Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 I try to install it to the default location, like all the software I install. note: just before this error appears, the installer succeeded to create a system restoration point. I tried to install the beta 4.0, and that's the same problem, with the same missaing file. I also tried to uninstall all the MS Frameworks with the .NET Framework Setup Cleanup Utility adviced on MS Community to solve problems with the FrameWorks. But nothing is better, Paint.NET doesn't propose to me to reinstall the Framework 3.5.1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Try reinstalling the frameworks you removed. They're going to be required. See the first point in this thread: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/692-install-update-or-uninstall-trouble-read-this/ Then try repairing each of them. That's points #4 AND #5 in the linked thread. Note point #9 - is your anti-virus disabled when you try to install?

Bozz65 Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 Hi, No any idea ? where can I show that to Paint.NET developers ? I believe I'll search an older system image and restore, no any other choice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoltBait Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 It looks to me like it is trying to uninstall a previous version and can't find the file that is needed. Maybe you could clean up a previous install by following these instructions: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/200-spooky-downloading-problems/?p=587 Then try to install again.
