I am trying to reinstall my Visioneer 8600 scanner, which uses One Touch software. Before, I was able to scan and have the image to go Microsoft Paint as a destination. Now, however, when I configure the "Scan" button, I do not see Microsoft Paint as a selectable destination, even though I specify "All destinations." How can I get Paint to show on the list?

Thanks for any help.

you have lost your file assocations for bmp that MS Paint uses.
Open My Computer
tools tab select folder optins
file types tab search for extensions for BMP
to see which program is using BMP extension.
if you do nont have BMP extension in your list you will have to create it.

Or you can install a different graphics program
I like 20/20 by byLight you can download it from
