Hello from Germany,

I have an Samsung Galaxy Book S (Snapdragon 8cx) with Wiindows 11 Home (22H2). Installation of x64 programms is usually no problem (LibreOffice, MS Office, etc.). But if I try to install Pinta, it is always ends with this error message:

Error

This programm can only be installed on versions of Windows designed for the following processor architectures:

x64

I know that my problem is most probably a very rare problem, but I hope that a solution is possible

With kind regards,

Thorsten

Guten Tag das heißt du brauchst Gtk3 Runtime zu installieren. PS: Windows 11 und ich habe kein Windows 11. Ich habe nur Linux.

Yeah, I think the main issue is probably that Pinta uses
https://github.com/GtkSharp/Dependencies for the Windows GTK build,
which does not have an ARM version
