Microsoft Paint is no longer supported after 32 years

RIP Paint 1985-2017

 

So as you know, Paint is an iconic Windows feature, you printscreen something, and you quickly open up Paint to crop it, or you did a little scrubble as a 6 year old. Today, Microsoft announced that mspaint is no more.

Microsoft put a statement today regarding deprecated and obsolete features that will be discontinued. On an unpleasant suprise to everybody, mspaint is on that list, and it might be killed off as soon as Fall Creators Update ?

 

Apparently, the reason why is because Microsoft wants people to move forward to Paint 3D, a more versatile but less known photo editing program.

 

IDK what to say, I feel so sad that Microsoft is killing such an iconic feature. What's next, to kill Notepad in favor of Word???
