Microsoft Paint isn’t dead yet, will live in the Windows Store for free

in #tech7 years ago

Calm all because Microsoft Paint does not have to go anywhere. Although the company signaled on Monday the remove of the application, Windows Experience Manager Megan Saunders said Microsoft will make the Paint application downloadable from the Windows Store.

According to a PC World news: "MS Paint is here to stay, and soon there will be a new home in the Windows Store where it will be free to download," Saunders said.

She accepted the nostalgia that the app had raised and affirmed the position that Paint would live. "If we've learned something in 32 years, is that Paint is pretty fan and fan," she continued.

With Authentic Autumn Updates, Microsoft had put the Paint application in the list of "convicts." This meant that the operating system giant would stop further development and be completely removed in future versions.

Although Saunders said Paint would be moved to the Windows Store, it did not show if it would be further developed. Paint started as an application in Windows 1.0 in 1985, a licensed version of ZSoft PaintBrush.

In the future, Microsoft will update Paint with support for JPEG, TIFF and other formats.
