Yesterday, Microsoft announced they would be ending the inclusion of MS Paint in the default Windows operating system. Since the news, there’s been a huge outpouring of sadness for the 32-year-old app, including our own ode to the art it was known for (mainly dicks).
Hold onto your tears, folks, because it turns out there’s still a way you can get the classic utility. Microsoft will be making it free to download from the Windows Store.
“If there’s anything we learned, it’s that after 32 years, MS Paint has a lot of fans,” wrote Megan Saunders, general manager of Windows Experiences.
“Amidst today’s commentary around MS Paint we wanted to take this opportunity to set the record straight, clear up some confusion and share some good news: MS Paint is here to stay, it will just have a new home soon, in the Windows Store where it will be available for free.”
The Windows 10 Creators Update will also contain a new app for your dick drawings – Paint 3D. It’ll have some of the classic MS Paint tools along with new 3D capabilities which actually look pretty sweet. Check it out below.
So if you’re a fiend for the old-school art of classic Paint, you’ll still be able to create until you explode.
