Paint.NET5.1.12

Create and retouch digital images on a Windows PC with Paint.NET, using editing tools that address everyday photo corrections and image-making tasks. Layers let you keep image elements separate, so individual parts can be adjusted without flattening the whole composition. An intuitive interface keeps the workspace approachable while unlimited undo lets you reverse any number of earlier changes during an editing session.

The software includes special effects for changing an image’s appearance alongside general-purpose photo and graphics tools. It suits people editing personal photographs, preparing digital artwork, or making image adjustments without a highly complex workspace. An active online community provides tutorials and assistance, and its plugins can extend the program beyond the capabilities included in the core software. Paint.NET is published by dotPDN LLC as freeware.

The current x64 release is version 5.1.12 and runs on Windows PCs. This update adds Kazakh translation support and refreshes the bundled DDS and JPEG XL FileType plugins to their latest versions. It also fixes a bad merge conflict that prevented DxgiAdapterService from implementing IDxgiAdapterService2.
