Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.

Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of Paint.NET 4.0.20.

What's new in this version:

New:
- Dark Theme support
- .NET Framework 4.7 is now required, and will be automatically installed if needed
- Explorer thumbnails are now supported for TGA and DDS file types

Fixed and Improved:
- High-DPI support throughout the application
- Color Picker tool was not always honoring the "Switch to previous tool" setting
- Fixed the arrow keys not working properly until the second shape (or line/curve) was drawn
- Fixed the zoom slider being "wiggly" while being dragged around
- Fixed a glitch with the mouse cursor (resize handle) at the lower-left corner of the main window
- Fixed a crash in the Shape tool renderer (BadNumberException via ID2D1Geometry::GetWidenedBounds)
- Fixed a hang in the Frosted Glass effect
- Fixed a hang in the Levels adjustment
- Fixed a rendering issue in the Move Selected Pixels tool
- Canvas now processes WM_MOUSEHWHEEL, which was preventing some horizontal mouse wheels and trackpad swipe gestures from working properly
- Plugins will no longer completely crash the app on Windows 10 S (note, however, that plugins other than custom Shapes do not work on Windows 10 S)
