Windows 10: I can not launch Microsoft store nor Microsoft news.

A Micrisoft tech told me to uninstall the news and reload it from the store. I did the uninstall but the store will not load. neither will feedback. I called up the store in my browser but the news will not load there either. What have they done?,

Microsoft signals end of Paint program

Microsoft has confirmed that it will continue to offer its graphics program Paint.

In a recent update, it had listed Paint as a feature that would be either removed or no longer developed.

Paint, renowned for its simplicity, has been part of the Windows operating system since its launch in 1985.

Microsoft suggested it would not remain on Windows 10 by default but did say it would be available for free on the Windows Store.
