SYMPTOMS
After you change the default foreground and background colors in Paint and
you click New on the File menu, the background color of the new file is the
color you selected, but the color palette reverts to black and white.
RESOLUTION
Paint is designed to retain the selected color combination when you open a
new file. If you prefer to maintain the white background, return to the
default background before you open a new file.
STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
