Microsoft's graphics program Paint has been included in a list of Windows 10 features that will be either removed or no longer developed.

Launches way faster than Photoshop or Fireworks, can crop or resize a logo or other image to correct dimensions. In a jiffy, it does what it needs to do.

I'm being facetious on how important the app really is, of course there are dozens of alternative tools out there and it's not really going to be missed by anyone.

It's sort of like what will happen when MS stops producing FreeCell or Solitaire or even WordPad. They'll be remembered briefly, then people will move on.
