Paint 3D is a tool I use for tasks regularly and I want to know why its shutting down all of a sudden

there's not enough information on why you cant keep it up, update it, or make a better version of it to fit windows 11.

The removal of Paint 3D shouldn't be necessary.

If it really has to go then I would like to know why you cant either save or remake it or even incorporate it into existing applications.

HAHA MICROSOFT ITS 24TH JANUARY 2025 RIGHT? GUESS WHAT. YOU DEPRECATED PAINT 3D ON NOVEMBER 4TH LAST YEAR. RIGHT? NOW I HAVE PAINT 3D ON MY WINDOWS 11 FRESH INSTALL!

I LAUGH IN THE FACE OF MICROSOFT AND SAY, WELL AND TRULY, WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP PAINT 3D. NO MATTER WHAT YOU TRY THERE IS ALWAYS A BACKDOOR, A METHOD TO REINSTALL IT!

Toast Mike, here is the file for Paint 3D, https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ylSw1pvV-PPZ5pFYY5F8EGwStwPNdPUc/view Download the full thing and double click to install it. All functions are there.

Godspeed.

    I used ACAD and this MS 3D Paint was similar in options and was a good tool. Now, it's 3 steps backwards. No percentage ability in line thickness, only 4 thickness choices. Can't freely rotate objects, especially arrows. This might be a good tool for beginners, but this is a bad joke MicroSoft. Hope I can find a better app out there.

    I was thinking that someone on GitHub can recreate the Paint 3D app program since Microsoft discontinued it. Just a thought though.
