Reply to "Good Software That Is Out of Print, Where to find, Tech Notes for Older Programs"

Kid Pix 4

For nearly two decades, Broderbund's Kid Pix 4 software was VERY popular in schools and Sunday School labs for its illustrating and storytelling tools. Many Sunday Schools and schools still use it and it CAN be tweaked to use on Windows 8,10, and 11. See notes below. (Newer versions go by the name of Kid Pix 5 and Kid Pix 3d and are now owned by MacKiev.)

Many versions of Broderbund's Kid Pix Deluxe 4 will need the attached patch file for KP4 to run in Windows 8, 10, and 11. Download the zip file, unzip it, and view the README file for how to easily install the included patch.

NOTES:
You may also need to download Quicktime for Windows version 7.7.9.

To make the screen fill more of the screen, go into your Windows "Display" settings and set your "SCALE" to 125% or 150%




Here's a screenshot of where to find the Kid Pix installation on your computer. These screenshots ALSO show you how to delete older users and their pictures/projects.
