Windows 10: Classic Paint Disappears After Update

I usually use my search bar at the bottom of my screen to bring up paint if I want to cut and paste a screen shot. When I click on it, the pop up window shows up, but Paint has disappeared. It doesn't appear in recants even though I use the app close to every day. I tried typing it in, but all I get is Paint 3D. I had to really hunt to find it and when I did I created a desktop shortcut. That solves that problem, but I would like to know what happened to the app in the first place. I am super annoyed that it happened at all since it is an app i use all the time. Anybody have similar problems?

Classic Paint on Windows 10 Creators Update?

Hi,

I have deferred updating to the Creators Update (build 1703) because I have heard rumours that Paint 3D will completely replace Classic Paint, an app that I greatly rely on and do not want to lose. I just want to know; on build 1703, are you still able to
access Classic Paint as well as Paint 3D or is it either one or the other?

Thanks in advance.
