    Paint .Net MSI needed today!!

    Does anyone have a MSI installer for the latest Paint .Net (3.22)? The installation file used to come as a nice CC3-friendly MSI, but it is now a .exe - one of our teachers has just this morning told me they need the latest version for tomorrow!!

    True, but like most other blueprints, it's for an outdated version.

    run the downloaded .exe with "/?" to find out the switches it takes but "/createmsi" will build MSIs for you

    Just deployed 3.22 and it deployed flawlesly just run the command in the link above and the msi's are created. You can make a couple of tweeks with Orca to turn off auto update and you're away.

    Small tip for anyone trying to work out what the heck happened to the MSI after lots of flashing screens.


    It gets put into a folder on your desktop.

    Took me a few minutes to work that out...
    (Tip: Run without the /auto flag to get the "finished" info and details on where it is)

    I resurrected it with a tip rather than start a new one... I ass-u-me'd that people would check the date and not go into helpful mode

    Besides, all the info' has been useful for someone so it's not wasted..
