    People: I wish MS would get rid of that legacy junk and bloat from windows...

    Same people: Paint and screensavers? Nooooooooooooooooooooooo!


    They've been trying to kill Paint off since Windows 8, first with 'Fresh Paint' and now with Paint 3D...

    I hope paint sticks around for many years to come. I find it quite handy.

    Paint is an absolute must have, a more convenient place to paste screenshots to and crop them does not exist.

    Wouldn't you just use Snipping Tool and have your screenshots the right size to start with?

    I find print screen button on keyboard then pasting it into paint much more convenient.

    What about apps like lightshot? Can just press Print Screen and crop there and then in a moment, or configure to do other things.

    Or just use ALT+Print screen to capture the active window once you've resized it.
