    How to get Windows XP Paint, for Windows 7


    One of the major user interface changes in Windows 7 is that the addition of ribbon interface to Paint program.
    The new ribbon interface is really handy to navigate between the options, but many old XP users are missing their favorite old interface. If you are also missing the good old simple user interface of the Paint program, then no need to worry anymore.

    You can also run the old XP standalone Paint and Windows 7 Paint simultaneously. So, you can now experience Windows XP Paint program in Windows 7 as well.

    So I got curious after seeing this, and decided to do a few tests using PE Info. This is a byte for byte copy of the mspaint.exe from Windows XP, meaning it's not technically legal. It doesn't just LOOK like Paint from Windows XP, it IS paint from Windows XP.
