Installer fails catastrophically on non-default path

I tried to install Paint.NET in a directory other than the default path.

The installer created a system restore point and then showed the following error message:

13751_93dfeee92cbd180cf4eb16f4a1d66146

Note that the error message mentions the default installation path. It should not attempt to access this path when I've told it to install somewhere else.

After that, it showed a dialog claiming to be finalising the system restore point:

13751_8873b3efdb4f778d7d3326f97786a5c0

but actually the installer was hanging at this point. It did not finish even after 1½ hours, at which point I closed it.

The actual application appears to be working correctly despite these problems.
