Download Paint.NET 5.0.12

Version 5.0.12 of Paint.NET has been released. This drawing and image editing program bridges the gap between the Paint that comes with Windows and expensive but very extensive programs such as Adobe Photoshop and Corel Photo Paint. The program can be downloaded from the maker's website, but can also be downloaded from the website for a small fee Windows Store are obtained. Version 5.0 Includes many performance improvements, new features including pressure sensitivity for pens and drawing tablets, and a brand new effects plugin system with GPU rendering support. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

Fixed

• A silent crash that was preventing the app from opening when double-clicking an image in Explorer, due to a bug in .NET's ProfileOptimization class
• Some canvas navigation keyboard shortcuts that have some overlap with the new tab movement shortcut keys (Ctrl+Shift+PageUp/PageDown)
• A crash in the Move Selected Pixels tool when the GPU does not support Direct3D Feature Level 11
• Another rare crash when rapidly undoing changes made with the Move Selected Pixels tool
• A few typos, inconsistencies, and bugs in some plugin APIs

Updated

• The bundled AvifFileType plugin to v1.1.27.0, which now supports loading the primary image of an animated/multi-frame AVIF
• The bundled WebPFileType plugin to v1.3.21.0, which now supports loading the first frame of an animated WebP image instead of saying the file is not supported
