    Cannot crop in paint

    It would seem to me that being able to custom crop pictures should be a BASIC thing to be able to do in Paint; especially by Windows 10. However it is not. Nor does Photo Gallery SAVE any crop so that you can actually SEE it. Surely I am NOT the only person
    who wants to crop photos? PLEASE add this to Paint. It is great in Word but you can't save a crop from Word back to being a JPEG or PDF doc.
