You have no need of auxiliary files to pass processed files to Paint.net, this is why it is not mandatory to fill in the Start in field.

The Arguments field is also to be left unchanged. By default, this field contains the ImageList variable that will be appointed, after processing, with the full name of the processed file.

Then activate the Run automatically after processing setting. After that, you will see near the Paint.net name the text [post-processing], that means the tool will be run automatically after processing.

Please note that if this setting is deactivated, Paint.net will not be started.
