TinyPaint error message

My son created a phantom project that is popping up every time he tries to use Scratch with the following error message "Cant find C:\program files\scratch\squeak V2.sourcesscratch.changes"  I have tried editing and saving/uploading the project but get the following "failed serialization unknown class TinyPaint"  I have tried to find/delete the project but it isnt on our local network.   Any suggestions for dealing with this phantom?

thanks for the advice, will do!

Re: TinyPaint error message

Hmm, it looks like you've got a Squeak error there...

Well, I think your problem is that it can't find the .changes file that's needed for some element of Scratch. I don't know how to fix this, but I would suggest asking the people in the Advanced Topics forums. They'll know what to do.

Or you could try posting in Troubleshooting; it would probably be better suited there. Either way, good luck!

Re: TinyPaint error message

your son has probably messed around with the shift-click-r method and opened up a 'morph' called tinyPaint. it's a hidden feature of scratch that looks like this:

if i am correct, it's not hard to remove

Re: TinyPaint error message

Probably the simplest solution would be to download and install a fresh shiny new version of Scratch.  That usually cures problems caused by people playing around with the Squeak environment  smile

Thank you laser 100!  shift click r'd, saved the project and it cleared the block!  My 7 year old thinks I'm a computer whiz instead of just a mom/landscaper!! kudoos to you!
