Description

IMPORTANT: This app works with Windows 10 Pro and Home. This app performs with core functionality on Windows 10 S but some 3rd party plug-ins do not work. We are working with Microsoft on a solution.


Paint.NET® is image and photo editing software for PCs that run Windows. 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. An active online community provides friendly help, tutorials, and plugins.


It started development as an undergraduate college senior design project mentored by Microsoft, and is now maintained and developed by Rick Brewster. Originally intended as a free replacement for the Microsoft Paint software that comes with Windows, it has grown into a powerful yet simple image and photo editor tool. It has been compared to other digital photo editing software packages such as Adobe® Photoshop®, Corel® Paint Shop Pro®, Microsoft Photo Editor, and The GIMP.


If you buy Paint.NET in the Windows Store, you'll be supporting its development directly (normally we ask for a donation). You will get the convenience of fast, easy installation onto all of your Windows devices along with fully automatic, behind-the-scenes updates with all the newest features, improvements, and fixes.

    Worth the money by Stephen

    Long time user, like many of the other reviewers. I already have a copy and have donated in the past, but bought another copy here just to give it a review and support it.

    Happy to support an app I've used for years by Joseph

    I've used paint.net for years and never donated (sorry). Happy to see it in the here ... I prefer the store to previous install tech and this is convenient way to keep up-to-date and a convenient way to say thank you to the developer.

    Powerful Lightweight Image editor by Cory

    I have been using this for years and finally decided to give these awesome developers a few dollars for their excellent work. Stable, updated, and has a great community. It's a small and fast program for when you want advanced editing without the slow startup.

    Fair to support it! by Alexi

    I've been using the classic app for years. It's given me so much benefit that I think is fair to give the author something in return. This is the exact same app you're accustomed to, this only has the benefits of the Windows Store (convenience, clean installs/uninstalls, transparent updates). It's worth the price.

    Minor gripe by Mindaugas

    Glad to see this on the store but developer needs to add abillity to install this on other discs, ShareX developer did that upon submitting feedback, there's no reason why Paint.NET can't do the same :).

    Great tool! by Timothy

    I've been using the desktop version for years, and I'm glad I now have an easier way to "donate" than the PayPal mthod I never used. A handy feature would be a button or settings option that would generate the plugins folder structure as well as browse-to to make it easier to set up and manage plugins,
