After announcing back in 2017 that Microsoft Paint was going to be making a move to the Microsoft Store, that never actually happened, although the store listing has finally shown up.
Back in spring 2017 when Microsoft released the Windows 10 Creators Update, it came with an app called Paint 3D. This was back when the firm thought we were going to have 3D everything. The average user was going to be making 3D art in Paint 3D, they’d be viewing it on Windows Mixed Reality, adults would be putting this stuff in PowerPoint presentations, and more. Because of that, Microsoft announced that Paint, which has been part of Windows for decades, was being deprecated that fall.
