You cannot kill what does not die Richard Speed Thu 8 Apr 2021 // 14:16 UTC Share Copy Microsoft Paint has followed its long-lived chum Notepad into the howling wilderness of the Microsoft Store. It has been a while coming, but last night's Dev Channel Insider build of Windows 10 (21354) has made the MSPaint app updateable via the Microsoft Store. The change, which was accompanied by a whizzy new icon for the aged bitmap editor, will allow Microsoft to tinker with the app without requiring a full-on Windows update. The same fate has already befallen the Notepad text editor, although we fervently hope those within the walls of Redmond fight the urge to fiddle with it too much.
