However, the last time I tried it, Paint3D was unable to run multiple simultaneous instances. For me, Paint is better for that than Paint3D because Paint requires fewer UI interactions to do what I want, plus I'm used to it, so it's faster. For me, I do little more than crop and annotate screen shots and other canned images. For some people, the 3D animation effects that Paint3D can generate may make it better for them. But what do you guys think? Is this just a case of us not wanting to get rid of old habits?īetter is entirely subjective. I also think the old version of Paint should not go away completely for people that still want to use it, hence it moving to the store.

Yes, it’s “app-ified,” if there is such a word, and it does more than what a lot of people need with the inclusion of these goofy 3D features, but can’t those just be ignored? So this caused me to fire up Paint 3D and play with it a bit, and I started thinking that, okay, maybe this isn’t so bad, that I could more than likely get used to it. So naturally, this sparked a debate, with some people claiming that it *should* be removed because it’s so old and Paint 3D is better, while others claim it does no harm to stay because it’s still a great, fast tool to use when you want to do really simple graphical operations on an image or photo (like cropping). Yesterday as I was reading an extremely long thread on Reddit about the Windows April 2018 update, there was also a sub-discussion about the warning you now get when you run Paint about it eventually moving to the store.
