Microsoft Paint will not be discountinued

Microsoft Paint has been around for ages and it seems that some people are still in love with this ancient app. Although it recently arrived in a completely new shape - Paint 3D - the original is not going anywhere. To make things clear, Microsoft's Megan Saunders has recently dedicated an entire blog post to this little app and its title should say it all - "MS Paint is here to stay."

The blog post mentioned above was published two days ago and highlighted the fact that "after 32 years, MS Paint has a lot of fans," but above anything else that "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."

Unfortunately, we cannot expect MS Paint to receive any new updates, but Microsoft might surprise us, after all. For now, the new star is Paint 3D, that will receive new features on a regular basis. Even more, those in love with MS Paint can enjoy most of its features in the new Paint 3D app.
