But one long-standing stalwart of the Windows experience has been put on the chopping block: Microsoft Paint.

Soloman Tump Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 I noticed it had disappeared from the start bar program list in my windows 10, theres some shit called Paint3D instead which at first inspection looked ass. If you run a search for the paint it is still there though... for now. Hopefully some freeware program can replace it? I still use it all the time. tbh why is it even getting axed?
