Windows 10: How do I turn off watermarking???

I was playing around and somehow turned on a watermark. Now, it just ignores me the choice is greyed out when I try to turn the watermarks off. I thought about the "administrator" role. I am an administrator. How can I get this done. I need to write some letters you know, those obsolete things sent in snail mail.

Thanks

:)

Your drawing sucks. *Laugh :laugh:

But well, yeah, a slightly smaller watermark would do. Although you should still be able to place it at least, and not just be at the bottom like your suggestion.

 

Watermark

Step 1:
Open Paint. Click the Paint button in the top-left corner of the workspace. Click "Open." Browse to and double-click the picture that you want to watermark. The image appears on the Paint canvas.

Step 2:
Click one of the colored squares in the "Colors" section of the toolbar. Choose black, gray, white or another color that will stand out from the colors of the picture.

Step 3:
Click the text icon, which looks like an "A," in the "Tools" section. Click the part of the image on which you want to place the watermark. Choose a font and text size.

Step 4:
Type the text of the watermark into the text box. Common watermarks include "Copyright," "Property of..." and the date.

Step 5:
Resize and reposition the text box to stretch across the picture by grabbing the top-left corner and pulling it into place.

Step 6:
Click the paint button again. Click "Save As." Type a new name for the picture -- so as not to overwrite the original -- and click the "Save" button.

Note: You can also choose the transparent or opaque option from paint toolbar on the top-middle during text editing/writing.
