Now it refuses to open without immediately crashing, before I can even interact with the interface. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it several times and restarted the computer. Here are my specs as listed in my settings "About" page: Windows 10 Home Intel Core i5-7200U CPU @ 2.50 GHz 8.00 GB RAM 64 bit OS Intel HD Graphics 620 I can supply more information if it's needed. I'm not sure what else in that vein will help here. I have the information from the kritacrash file, but it's far too long to post in this forum post. I hope someone will be able to help me. Thank you! SR

If so, see viewtopic.php?f=139&t=141980&p=381808#p381808 I uninstalled 3.3.0 again and tried to install 3.2.1, but now it says that it can't remove the previous program, and doesn't want to install. The only installation I could finagle out of it threw an error that claimed it didn't have the proper permissions when I tried to run it.

It is not. Is there some sort of manual uninstall I could do to completely wipe any traces of Krita from my computer? (It isn't visible through programs in the control panel either.) Or some way to repair an installation?

Or some way to repair an installation? Nevermind! I have fixed the problem by creating a new home for Krita's files and installing it there. Seems to be working quite well now. Thank you!
