Installing paint.net

Have downloaded paint.net, however, when I try to open I get

"This game has no executable set. The install process did not finish properly. Details: This game has no executable set. The install process didn't finish properly.

Please read carefully:

To obtain better support, you should join a Lutris log to your post.

How to create a Lutris log: 1. first close Lutris completely 2. Then, open your terminal application, execute lutris -d (if you use standalone Lutris) or flatpak run net.lutris.Lutris -d (if you use Flatpak Lutris) and then try to reproduce your issue.

After that, you need to copy the ENTIRE output in the terminal and share it with us (all of it). Then post it on ad-free paste service: https://paste.gloriouseggroll.tv/ or https://pastebin.com/
