Microsoft will remove the Paint 3D application from the Microsoft Store on November 4, 2024, and it will no longer receive updates. Users can use Paint or Photos for 2D image editing and 3D Viewer for viewing 3D content. Paint 3D was introduced during the Windows 10 Creators Update but failed to gain widespread consumer interest. Microsoft initially planned for Paint 3D to succeed the classic Paint app but later allowed both to coexist due to consumer feedback. The Remix 3D platform, launched alongside Paint 3D, was discontinued in 2020. Microsoft is now focusing on enhancing the classic Paint app with new features, including generative AI capabilities. Users are advised to download the Paint 3D installer before its removal. Existing installations will remain functional.
