Paint.Net has been updated to version 4.0.5. This update includes a number of fixes.

Overview
The Paint.Net is free image and photo editing software for Windows users. It features an intuitive and innovative user interface with support for layers, unlimited undo, special effects, and a wide variety of useful and powerful tools. It is very simple and easy to use, and specially designed to be learned through intuition without assistance or manuals. Paint.Net features the tabbed interface where the tabs show a live thumbnail in place of a text. These thumbnails make it easy for users to see which images they need to open when work with multiple images.

Paint.Net has been compared to some of the commercial digital photo editing software packages such as Adobe Photoshop, Corel Paint Shop Pro, Microsoft Photo Editor, and The GIMP.

Paint.Net 4.x comes with a brand new, asynchronous, fully multithreaded rendering engine. It also improvements to various tools and a tweaked user interface. More information about Paint.Net 4.x available here.

What's new in Paint.Net 4.0.5
This release contains a number of bug fixes, and performance improvements. Here’s the full change log:

• Fixed: Subtraction mode in the Magic Wand tool was generating B-A instead of A-B.
• Fixed: Crash when using Effect –> Repeat.
• Fixed: Crash (AccessViolationException) on some systems when initializing the canvas for hardware accelerated rendering. It will still crash but then switch to software rendering for the next startup, which will then avoid the crashing.
• Fixed: Crash when clicking on the Shapes tool if you had run an old 4.0 beta/alpha and had also changed which shape is used at startup to be a line or curve.
• Fixed: Crash when using Settings –> Update –> Check Now due to incorrectly determining that UAC is not enabled.
