SFGary Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I tried to install paintdotnet w/.net framework but it kept hanging up. So I tried installing .NET framework but it hangs at one particular point, while registering "system.EnterpriseServices.dll", while executing c:\windows\microsoft.net\Framework\v2.0.50727\"RegSvcs.exe" /bootstrapi. Any help would be appreciated but if there is a diff forum I should go to pl. let me know. I have a 1.8GHz PC w/1G RAM, 50G free space, XP Pro w/SP2. BTW I tried to install in both Admin mode and w/my user account which also has admin privileges. Gary[/img] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 You'll have better luck finding a place that specializes in troubleshooting or supporting installation of .NET itself then.

SFGary Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 thanks Rick and user24. I tried uninstalling and retrying but no luck. I'll look for a .net forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davesnothere Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 while attempting to update to 3.01 I received several errors that prevented me from installing 3.01 or from reinstalling 2.72. I attempted the windows clean up utility but Paint.net was not listed. I also repaired the .net 2.0 thinking that was the problem to no avail. I am running XP, P-4 CPU 3GHz with a gig of ram these first two come up at the same time. 1. MirrorShim.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. 2. SetupShim.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. Behind them is the regular install screen, that does allow you to continue. to the license agreement page, Then another error stating 3. Unhandled exception has occurred in a component in your application, If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. "Could not find file 'C:\Documents and Settings\Dave\Local Settings\Temp\PdnSetup\PaintDotNet.msi'." Clicking continue shows the "Paint.Net is being installed..." This screen hangs forever with the Cancel, Back and Next buttons greyed out. Any Ideas? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I attempted the windows clean up utility but Paint.net was not listed. What is the very first element of the list? I ask this because we have seen some cases were Paint.NET wasn't clearly written in the list, but shown as "(no user) no name" . Quote No. Way. I've just seen Bob. And... *poof!*—just like that—he disappears into the mist again. ~Helio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davesnothere Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 (All Users) Adobe Reader is the first item listed. with the exceptions of Cosmi Contact Mgr and the Windows Installer Clean Up Utility all other entries begin with (All Users) these two items have nothing in front of them. I don't have any items listed that I would consider obscure. Dave... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davesnothere Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Addendum: I also deleted Paint.net from the registry and tried to reinstall, no difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davesnothere Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Problem solved, after the install failed I checked my temp files I was able to execute the "SetupFrontEnd.exe" in the "PdnSetup" folder. It ran thru the set up without an issue. I hope this might be of some help to others with the same issue. Of course this still does not answer the question as to why this was happening. Bob, thank you for your help and input. Dave... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
