When I click 'help' in MSPaint nothing happens. And there is no 'help' file for Paint in the WindowsXP help directory. How can I get this file? Thanks
 
check your anti-virus software if it might have paint
blocked.

Hi,

Start/run msconfig, click on "expand file" (general tab)

File to expand: mspaint.hlp
From: X:\I386
To: %windir%\help

Where X is whatever letter is assigned your CD drive (you need your WinXP CD
for this), change it accordingly. If your system was preinstalled, you may
find this instead on the hard drive under C:\Windows\I386. If so, change the
"from" line accordingly.

Repeat the steps for mspaint.chm, reboot when finished.
