Features removed or Deprecated in Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

A shame about MSPaint, I use it at least twice each morning Mon-Sat largely due to its simplicity and speed in accomplishing what I need.
I only ever run MSPaint in order to answer questions about it on this forum. My preferred editor for the past two decades has been Paint Shop Pro, starting with the shareware version 3.11. I find it easier to use than MSPaint but with far more features. I currently use a 15 year old PSP7 under Win10 x64 which still works flawlessly.

Jasc was a great company. Great tools, both Paint Shop and Animation Shop. Adobe had to ruin that too. HAHAH!

We still use Paint Shop Pro x9, excellent program.

So what's next? Remove Notepad? MSPaint was like the Notepad of bitmap images ...
There are plenty of deeper alternatives, but nothing like having a built-in tool that is quick and light for basic tasks.
I do like the look of Paint.net though.

That is my Main Graphics Program for years.

Obviously they want people to pay for the programs they actually use while constantly adding useless features specially social media crap.

Hahha, true. The "social media crap" can be completely disabled though. Windows 10 has a lot of useful new features. One just has to find them and have a compatible computer.
Personally I don't like most of the Windows store apps, I prefer portable win32 applications for most my tasks. They are fast and small, easy to fix and configure and also easy to migrate to a clean install of Windows. No registry mess and no folder permission hassle. :)

MSPaint hasn't been removed, not yet anyway, just deprecated. Whatever that actually means? Some feature or features were likely removed. It may not impact you depending on what you actually do with it.

Paint Shop Pro has been doing pretty good since Corel bought it, haven't gotten around to installing on my latest computer.

It's good but it's not the lightweight image manipulation app it used to be. It is very heavy now. And has HUGE minimum system requirements.
