HackerDaGreat57 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 One of my jobs is to edit high-resolution images. PhotoPad has handled this like a champ across all of my computers. However, I am trying to open a 12096x16128 image, but PhotoPad is complaining that it does not have enough memory. That can't be true, since I had 35.6 GB of RAM free when I tried to open the image. I suppose this is a side-effect of compiling PhotoPad for Windows as a 32-bit application. All I'm asking for is for you to release a 64-bit version of PhotoPad for professionals that handle large images on a daily basis. Frankly, I expect more from $60 software.

elk Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 In attempt to fix this issue, you can try the steps below: Uninstall PhotoPad, then delete 3 folders named "PhotoPad" and 1 named "Components" from these locations: **C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\NCH Software\PhotoPad\ **C:\Program Files (x86)\NCH Software\PhotoPad\ **C:\Program Files (x86)\NCH Software\Components **C:\ProgramData\NCH Software\PhotoPad\ **If you can't find any of the folders, just continue. After that, restart your computer and reinstall the program using this link: https://www.nchsoftware.com/photoeditor/ppadsetup.exe Once done, restart your system one more time and try again.

HackerDaGreat57 Posted April 25, 2022 Author Share Posted April 25, 2022 It is still complaining that it ran out of memory. Yes, I restarted my computer.

HackerDaGreat57 Posted July 15, 2022 Author Share Posted July 15, 2022 Literally none of these solutions are working. Tell your developer team to release a 64-bit PhotoPad just like they did for VideoPad, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
