Microsoft is no longer removing its classic MS Paint application from Windows 10. The software maker had planned to remove it and list it as an optional app in the Microsoft Store, but it appears plans have now changed
Microsoft had been planning to remove its popular Paint app from Windows 10, but the company has now reversed course. The software maker had been warning Windows 10 users for months that Paint would be removed, and those warnings vanished in the latest May 2019 Update . “Yes, MSPaint will be included in 1903,” says Brandon LeBlanc, a senior program manager for Windows at Microsoft. “It’ll remain included in Windows 10 for now.
” LeBlanc didn’t reveal why Microsoft had removed its warnings, but it’s clear Paint will no longer be removed from Windows 10 in the immediate future. Microsoft previously marked Paint as “deprecated,” meaning it wasn’t in active development and could be removed in future releases of Windows. The company had planned to remove it from Windows 10 and include it as a free optional download from the Microsoft Store.
