slow opening from file > open and open button on toolbar

[jchunn]

When I try to open some images (by clicking the "open" icon on the toolbar or using the file-> open menu), I get the file-open dialog, select a file, click the "open" button, and PDN locks up (screen does not respond to mouse, does not repaint) for about 45 seconds or so, then it gives me a message stating that PDN has experienced an error and must close... and I should refer to the pdncrash.log on my desktop.

The application has been working fine and opening images fine for the two weeks or so that I have had it. I have mostly been creating images from scratch, so I can't say exactly what percentage of open attempts result in this issue. I have opened several images successfully, for sure, so it does not always do this.

I am attaching an image that it has happened on several times. I tried to attach the log file, but for some reason, the forum wouldn't let me, so I am pasting it below. I DID reboot and try to open the attached file immediately afterwards, and still had the problem, so I don't think it is a corrupt memory issue (suggested in the log), since I didn't do anything to corrupt any memory (unless it is PDN that is corrupting the memory when trying to open this file?).

This text file was created because Paint.NET crashed.

Please e-mail this file to paint.net@hotmail.com so we can diagnose and fix the problem.

Since it's a different problem (the other was from drag-and-drop) I've split this to its own thread. :-)

Usually, on this forum, we try to keep problems separate, unless they're reproducibly identical. Thanks.
