’s ditching one of its Paint apps in Windows 11 (and 10) – until I discovered that the application on the chopping block was Paint 3D.

In case you didn’t realize, there are two Paint apps for Windows 11: Paint, a modernized version of the classic app, and Paint 3D which was served up as its replacement way back in 2016, the idea being that it enabled you to use 3D features in your creations.

However,

– there’s a new warning banner that has appeared informing Windows 11 users of Paint 3D’s imminent removal from the store.

The warning notification reads: “Paint 3D won’t be available in the

Paint 3D is looking rather shabby these days

At this point, there’s doubtless only a small niche of Windows users who are Paint 3D fans – although they will no doubt be upset by the news of the app’s demise.

Store, which complain about the poor maintenance of the app. One common beef with Paint 3D is the app no longer appearing in the flyout menu when right-clicking on an image and going to the ‘Open with…’ option, meaning that opening an image is a much clunkier process.

If you’re interested in dipping your toes into 3D image editing, and have been mulling over using Paint 3D, then you better download and install the app from the
