Fans of Microsoft’s long-standing Paint program are suddenly feeling very blue.
The company recently announced that Microsoft Paint is on a list of features that are set to be “removed and deprecated” in the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, set to be released this fall. That means the 32-year-old graphic-editing program will be in the fall update but is no longer being actively updated and could be phased out at some point. It’s unclear when Microsoft will officially remove Paint from its software.
Known for its simplicity, Paint allowed users to dream of being the digital Leonardo da Vinci by using their computer’s mouse as the brush.
