Whenever I click the X button on the Pinta window or I go to the menu and click exit an error window shows up and says
Unhandled exception:
Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
When I click details the window shows this : System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

I can't find the process in the process manager. It's unclosable!
I am not experiencing this kind of problem and I use Pinta 1.6 on Ubuntu 14.04 and Windows 7. Maybe this problem is your system specific. Can you please be so kind and provide more info. project. com/releases
1. What is your Pinta version (menu Help | About). If you are using some old version please install latest stable: www.pinta-
2. Also provide info what is your operating system and version.
3. Is this problem happening EVERY time? Like starting Pinta and closing it without any other action? If no, then we need exact step-by-step instructions how to trigger the crash.
