Ego Eram Reputo Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Its probably a damaged download.

Ego Eram Reputo Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Take a screenshot of the error message. Upload it to an image hosting site & post the link here. 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 August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I've split this question out from the thread you posted in.

ReMake Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Is your operating system has a software for unzipping files (for example, 7-Zip, WinZip, WinRAR, IZArc, etc.)? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonRebel Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 Is your operating system has a software for unzipping files (for example, 7-Zip, WinZip, WinRAR, IZArc, etc.)? If I download WinRAR should it work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skullbonz Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Windows 10 doesn't have a zip program of it's own like 7 did? Quote http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/21233-skullbonz-art-gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMake Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 If I download WinRAR should it work? Yes, of course. After you download and install WinRAR right-click on paint.net.4.0.6.install.zip and select the desired action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Is your operating system has a software for unzipping files (for example, 7-Zip, WinZip, WinRAR, IZArc, etc.)? Unnecessary. Windows has had a built-in unzip utility since Windows 98. RonRebel: How are you trying to open the file? What is the file's size?

And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.Amy: But how did it end up in there?The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMake Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Maybe it will help: Zip and unzip files Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitenurse79 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Windows 10 doesn't have a zip program of it's own like 7 did? Windows 10 has the same self extractor for zips like it always has across all versions from Windows 98 onward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skullbonz Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I thought maybe now it was called an app and you had to buy it from MS or somewhere else,lol Quote http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/21233-skullbonz-art-gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitenurse79 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I thought maybe now it was called an app and you had to buy it from MS or somewhere else,lol Not everything featured in the "modern day" windows relies on an app that you buy. You should give it a tryout instead of "thinking" what it can (or can't do) You may even enjoy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Maybe it will help: Zip and unzip files Again, shouldn't be necessary. My assumption is that the file is getting corrupted, or that the OP is downloading the wrong file. Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...
