Yesterday we heard that Microsoft Paint could be killed off as the app was listed deprecated. This is due to happen when the Windows 10 Fall Creators Edition update is released.
Microsoft has now confirmed that from the Windows 10 Fall Creators Edition update, Microsoft Paint will no longer be bundled with the OS, instead it will be available as a download for Windows.
MS Paint is here to stay, it will just have a new home soon, in the Windows Store where it will be available for free.
Paint 3D – the new app for creativity, also available for free with the Windows 10 Creators Update, will continue to get new feature updates. In addition to the new 3D capabilities, many of the MS Paint features people know and love like photo editing, line and curve tools, and 2D creation are in Paint 3D.
Good news for MS Paint fans that Microsoft has decided not to kill off the app. You can find out more details over at Microsoft at the link below.
