The PDN installer shows the message that the installer is not build to support the x86 architecture, see attached image.
Since PMPC is downloading the x64 installer for x86 Windows, this seems to be the problem.

Same issue on Windows 8 x86:

The issue is still not resolved?!?
Would you mind updating your definitions?

Find the offline installers for each separate platform at https://github.com/paintdotnet/release/releases

[Omar (Patch My PC)]

We only offer x64 of Paint.Net and several other apps, and soon "Patch My PC" itself will be only x64

[StPendl]

So it would be good to disable Paint.NET for x86 to avoid the false download and failing installation.

Does it works?

[StPendl]

You will have to maintain the 32-bit release of Paint.NET through the program itself, this works great and reliably.
The release 4.3.x is the last one to be supported for 32-bit, starting with 4.4.x Paint.NET is 64-bit only.

[Omar (Patch My PC)]

Paint.Net is now disabled on x86 machines in today's Patch My PC v4.2.0.5

[StPendl]

Thanks for the fix, this makes it more transparent.
Have a pleasant one.
