How to Watch a Movie in MS Paint (Yes, Really!)

Ever wondered if you could watch a movie in MS Paint? It might sound strange, but it's actually possible! Follow these simple steps to play a movie directly in MS Paint. This fun little trick is sure to impress your friends, and it’s a neat way to combine your favorite media player with one of the simplest graphic tools available.

Below are the steps to start a movie in MS-Paint

1. Open the Movie: Start by playing your favorite movie in any media player. For this example, I used VLC Media Player, but you can try it with others too.

2. Launch MS Paint: While the movie is playing, open MS Paint. You can find Paint in your Start menu or simply type "Paint" in the search bar

3. Capture the Screen: When the movie is playing, press the "PRINT SCREEN" key on your keyboard. This will capture whatever is currently displayed on your screen

4. Paste in Paint: Switch to the Paint window and press CTRL+V to paste the screen capture into Paint. You'll see the current frame of the movie pasted as an image

5. Keep the Movie Player Open: Here's the crucial part—leave the movie player open and do not minimize it. As long as the player is still active in the background, Paint will display the movie frame by frame

6. Watch the Movie in Paint: Now, just sit back and watch the movie play within MS Paint! It’s a quirky way to experience your media content, and it shows just how versatile these simple tools can be.

You can also save running movie in paint. Now if you open up your paint file, you can see movie is still running if your movie player is not closed.
