Paint is not where the system expects it - it's as simple as that! When
you run a shortcut to a program and that program does not exist in the
directory specified, Win95 will offer you an alternative program (in
this instance Notepad). If you accept this, Win95 will ALWAYS run the
substituted program without any warning.

So, find out where Paint really is and amend the properties for the
shortcut.
