This setting lets you display MS Paint text tool bar.

Tweak for : Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows XP, Windows 2003, Windows 2000, Windows Vista

Description:

MS Paint lets you create and edit drawings and scanned photos. If you are writing text, then it should display a toolbar, which has fonts, style and size. If it does not, then the setting has to be changed in the registry.

For this, go to Start > Run menu, enter “regedit” and navigate to the registry path listed below. If the subkey “\CurrentVersion\Applets\Paint\Text” is not present, create it as explained below. Then, create a DWORD value name “ShowTextTool”, if this value does not exist. Now, right-click and modify the value data box with “1” to enable the setting.

Close the registry.

After restart, the changes take effect.
