As Microsoft preps the next version of Windows<\/a>, a hole has been spotted in an earlier Great Hope for the company: MS Paint 3D.<\/p>\n

The raster graphics and 3D modelling app was part of Microsoft’s Creators Update back in 2016<\/a> and was released in 2017. The idea was that users would embrace its support for 3D objects and ditch the ancient Microsoft Paint (first introduced with Windows 1.0) for the new shiny.<\/p>\n
