Title: Paint.NET 5.1.0 Update - Home Updater v5.0.3
Post by: dking02 on November 13, 2024, 10:54:23 PM

On 13 Nov 2024, Home Updater V5.0.3 showed an update of Paint 5.1 (released and installed on 12 Nov 2024) to 5.1.0 (see attached screenshot). 5.1.0 is a bogus version id for Paint.NET. The update to 5.1.0 reinstalled version 5.1 but Home Updater got hung in an endless loop exiting the installer. Home Updater needed to be exited to get out of the loop and any pending updates reinitiated. v5.1 is what appears in the registry, in the Paint.Net Version History, within the app, and in what PMPC ultimately displays after installing the so-called update leaving the incorrect "Outdated" status displayed. Ideally, a difference in version numbers like 5.1 and 5.1.0 would be considered insignificant and not trigger an update.
