Rhapsody Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 When Paint.NET downloads the update, the button's text of the dialog is changing all the time ('Cancel' -> 'Close' -> 'Cancel' -> etc) This is new in alpha 2, as far as I know.

Mobleman Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 I'm also experience this bug, and when the update is downloaded, it can't be installed. After I close Paint.Net as the "update-manager" says, and the installation begins, it says that it doesn't have permission to the file (C:\Program Files\Paint.Net\Staging\PaintDotNet_107149113.msi). I realised that when I installed the Alpha (1), I installed it in C:\Program Files\Paint.NET Alpha\ (in the hope, that I could use both 3.10 and the alpha). Unfortunately, nothing was installed in that folder, but Alpha 1 downloads the update in it, and forgets that it isn't placed in the app-folder C:\Program Files\Paint.Net After I click "okay" to the "update-installation-file-not-found", Paint.Net says that it has detected that some important installation files are missing, and wants to repair FileTypes\DdsFileType.dll. :?

david.atwell Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Alpha 2 downloaded just fine for me. The cancel/close is probably intentional, but I didn't notice when it was switching.

Crazy Man Dan Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Heh. That's hilariously trippy... While the file is being downloaded, the "Cancel" button flickers between "Cancel" and "Close." I tried using CamStudio to capture the anomaly, and CamStudio saw nothing of the sort - in the final generated AVI, the button never wavers from "Cancel." In my testing, though, I did notice that this flicker was not present in 3.08. I'm not sure about 3.10. I downgraded to 2.63, since it was the most recent version I still had the installer for, and its "Check for Updates" found 3.08 as the most recent version. While I was there, I tried the upgrade to 3.20A - no flicker.

Bob Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 CamStudio saw nothing of the sort - in the final generated AVI, the button never wavers from "Cancel." Framerate trick, to those wondering.
