Cannot find 'Paint' under 'Accessories'... or anywhere!
I can't find "Paint" under "Accessories" using Firefox 14. When I used 'Help' and ask a question about how to use 'Paint' of information arises allows me to get paint by clicking a button.
My questions: is there a way I can get to paint without having to ask a question each time to use it... or, a more direct route to painting, if you want?
Thank you.
Fred
If you go to the box "search programs and files" immediately above the paint start button and type ' ' it should show in the list of found items. If you don't want to do this every time, you can click it in the list and choose "Pin to Start Menu" or "PIN to the taskbar. Another option would be to choose "Copy" then move it to the desktop, right click and choose 'Paste shortcut'.
If you can't find it via the method above, the painting is located in %windir%\system32\mspaint.exe (usually get you there by clicking on the Start button, clicking on 'Computer' in the right column, and then navigate through the BONE (usually C) drive, then the "Windows" directory, and then "System 32" directory and then search for "mspaint"
Once you have found, you can right-click on it and choose "Pin to Start Menu" or "PIN to the taskbar. Another option would be to choose "Create shortcut" and have put a shortcut on the desktop.
Another option is to download and use a free powerful paint programs: http://www.getpaint.net/

Cannot find paint - is no longer listed in all programs
I have Vista Home Premium. My son and I have separate user accounts. My son was connected to his user account, he entered in start - all programs and dragged painting on his desk, as he has the icon on his desktop. However, when I login under my user account, I now can't find the painting because it is more listed in all programs and I don't have an icon on my desktop. I'm looking for paint when you are connected to my user account.
Hello, horsedreamer72
Thanks for choosing Microsoft answers Forum!
Try to repeat the search Carey suggests, but instead of looking for the paint, look for: mspaint
The mspaint program shows in the search results?
When search you from the menu start, a list of search results will be displayed where the programs are normally. To return to the list of programs, click on the button just to the right of the search box.
You can find more information on the following Windows search feature: menu start (overview).
We can't wait to hear back on your part.

Cannot find the Microsoft Paint program on computer
The paint program is not anywhere is on the computer at all, even if I'm looking for the painting in the start menu search bar. The only way I can open it is if I go to help and support. Why is this happen and how do I get that back to normal?
If the paint will open help & support, then there clearly are on the computer. Maybe somehow managed to delete or move the shortcut from the Start Menu? I can't imagine how this could be done accidentally, but stranger things have happened.
In Windows Explorer, browse to C:\WIndows\System32 folder, right-click on the file "MSPaint.exe" and select "create shortcut". You will say that you cannot create a shortcut to this place and offers a choice of desktop space. Once the new shortcut has been created, you can move it back to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories folder, where he usually resides.

After Vista update cannot find the external hard drive, AutoPlay does not work, and new unusable disk appears under my computer. Also I can't 'manage' my computer because I do not have "permissions". I tried a fix he 45071 and it did nothing.
Applications, (Norton and McAfee) (including free evaluation versions are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself.) If NIS has been installed for 3 years, you have NIS update at least once and maybe twice (e.g., NIS 2009 > NIS 2010 > NIS 2011).
[You may want to print these instructions for reference offline. If a step said to reboot, reboot.]
1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe
2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).
3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall all Norton software (including LiveUpdate and everything Norton Add ons) viaControl Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view).
4 IMPORTANT! -Online activate Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.
NB: Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed step #7 below!
5. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above, and then select run as administrator. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.
6. do a clean install of NIS 2011 (using your product ID, if need be) & reboot. CF. http://www.symantec.com/norton/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20080514162318EN
NOTE: Do NOT activate or install additional modules of Norton (for example, Norton Anti-Phishing) immediately.
8. open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 & run the difficulty.
9. open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 & run that set it by DEFAULT and modes and AGGRESSIVE. [1]

In Photoshop, how can I change the background (Mount table) from black to white. I must have hit something because it changed suddenly mid-project and I cannot find anywhere in preferences to solve this problem.
Right-click on the pasteboard, and you should have a choice of colours from timeline menu.
I would add that you should have a file to open it or it won't work.
