I have windows xp and ive tried to lift the paint program but it is not on my laptop.

I don't have the cd of instulation that I got my laptop from a friend and they can't find the cd.

I would like that it while my son was asked to paint.

Please help me.

Thank you

First of all, let's see if you are missing really the program - or only the shortcut to it.

  • Do a search on your C: drive for 'all files and folders' looking mspaint
  • Click on the 'Advanced Options' button and check the boxes to look in the records system, hidden files and folders and subfolders.

You should get several hits, but an important should be located in C:\Windows\system32 mspaint.exe.

If you find mspaint.exe in C:\Windows\system32, here's how you can put a shortcut on your desktop

1. right click on an empty space on your desktop and select new > shortcut from the context menu

2. the wizard create a shortcut starts.  Copy the line below and paste it into the box that says "enter the location of the item."  Copy exactly as it is.

%SystemRoot%\System32\mspaint.exe

3. click on next

4 type Paint in the box that says "Type a name for this shortcut".

5. click on finish.

  • How to start the program before windows 7 user logon

    I already know how to start a program when a user logs on to Windows 7. * (Not easy to find, but once you know the trick, it's simple as pie: place a shortcut in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup). So don't answer that. I already know that.

    But my question is this:

    How can I get the same program to launch * before * the users logon? I want the program start when Windows restarts.

    This program does not require the user's privileges - does not open the files, etc., except access to (of course) its location in C:\Program Files (x 86) / folder.

    (What, you may ask? I would like to launch a program of Wake-on-LAN to send a "magic packet" to a computer on the local subnet to sleep. Asleep computer happens to host some of the shared data).

    If you want to start until the user opens a session, you will have to start as a service.

    This is the boot sequence for the main registry keys, starting immediately after reading bootmgr and ending with the program shortcut entries in the two startup folders.

    1 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\BootExecute. This may include instructions to schedule chkdsk runs, but not the user programs.

    2 services start ensuites, followed by the keys of registry RunServicesOnce and RunServices (if present)

    3. the user then connects to the system

    4 HKLM Winlogon, Userinit. This indicates that the program C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe, and the entry ends with a comma. Other programs can be started from this key by adding and separated by a comma.

    5 HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Shell. This must contain an entry, explorer.exe.

    6. program entered into these key 2 registry for all USERS start following:

    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and \RunOnce

    7. program entered into these 2 registry for the CURRENT USER key start following:

    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and \RunOnce

    8. programs in startup of all records users and current user are started last of all.

    Important as antivirus and firewall programs begin early in the sequence as Services. The icons that appear in the Notification area (at the bottom right of the screen) is just their user interfaces, i.e. options and preferences.

    The additional location of 32-bit applications on a 64-bit computer is HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node and HKCU.

    Hello Geoff

    Thanks for this useful article, but I don't know what you mean with:
    Canada ONLY with the support of xp for this computer's AMERICA. *

    How to understand America? Do you mean WE, in North America or South America?
    I checked US Toshiba support page and Satellite A100-1201E is not listed there. It is without doubt no portable US model.
    So please be so kind and post it where we can find the Toshiba WXP drivers for this model of laptop.
