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 Paint 3D all the time because it can do things Paint can't.

    Exactly! Regular paint is so useless and has terrible ui. Sure they made it look nicer in windows 11 but simple things like cropping and zooming in and out require too much bullsh** to do. There is also no 3D text which I rely on as it looks nicer. Let's be real, it was regular ms paint that should have been gotten rid of, but Microsoft decided to be dumb and update their almost 40 year old program with a couple new features instead of a new one, which was more feature rich and useable.

    3d paint is my favorite art app to actually made 3d models, share my creativity and such, now that I'm hearing that its being deleted, I've been a bit worried since its sad seeing it become or slowly becoming discontinued.

    It was the best Paint app, I have been using Paint3D for long time. It even made Photoshop redundant in some cases.

    I firmly believe Adobe bribed Microsoft to remove Paint3D.
