I think I remember some dozen ping pong programs I've seen over 20 years. You might want to supply the make and version of the one you are noting. Also, sometimes you find the AUTHOR in the HELP ABOUT box which you can try to contact the author to see if they have a fix for the issue.
Some games that came with the OS are simply "demos" and nothing more.

I've been playing with the ping comm/prog.
It seems to work well but as soon as the prog finishes it closes and erases the screen.
At best you only have a few seconds to look at the results and then it's gone.
Any way to stop the prog from exiting/erasing the screen?
Or maybe send the results to another file?
