Missing Paint Program

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

I can't find my paint program..I know it was on my computer...and I didn't
delete it. Now it isn't there anymore...and I have checked my whole computer
for it.

Right-click your desktop and choose "New" then "Shortcut". In the box
asking for the location of the item, type (or copy and paste) this:

%SystemRoot%\system32\mspaint.exe

Click next and name it whatever you choose (ie, Paint). Click Finish. This
will place an icon for it on your desktop which you can move wherever you
want.

Try using Add or Remove Programs. Under Windows Components, select
'Accessories and Utilities', click 'Details', then 'Accessories' and click
'Details' again. If Paint is already checked, uncheck it (to remove it),
"Ok" back to the first screen and hit "Next" to finish. Then, go back to
it, recheck it and "Ok" everything to reinstall it. If it's already
unchecked, simply do step 2 do reinstall it.
