Windows 10: Problem with Paint 3d

Has any one used paint 3d yet?
When I login to the 'Remix3d' site and open any of the creations and click on 'remix in paint 3d', Paint 3d opens and I get the message 'couldn't open this model. try again'
I have uninstalled the app and reinstalled but still get the same message. Anybody got any advice about this?
Thanks

Paint 3D cannot open STL files

Please update Paint 3D to be able to open STL files. View 3D *can* open them just fine.

When I open them in View 3D, and click the "Paint 3D" button, it gives this error message:

"We couldn't open Paint 3D. Wait a bit, then try again."

I did, and it keeps failing. So then, I manually go to Paint 3D, and open the file from there. In order to do that, I have to enter "*.*" as the filename, otherwise it won't pop up. The file types dropdown doesn't list STL files. But that's for good reason,
apparently, because Paint 3D says:

"Paint 3D can't read this file. It may be invalid, or in a format that we don't currently support."

So, recap:

1) The file is completely valid, because View 3D can open it just fine

2) Why can Paint 3D not open a file, while View 3D can?

3) Please add this functionality to paint 3D. It's an industry standard file type for 3D models.

This is on Windows 10.0.15063.

 

Microsoft Paint 3d User Manual

There is no user guide published by Microsoft for Paint 3D. There are a couple of good to-do guides available for Paint 3D on internet. I will recommend following

https://www.groovypost.com/howto/microsoft-pain...

https://www.techradar.com/how-to/how-to-use-mic...

https://www.howtogeek.com/303492/how-to-use-mic...

You can also go to Youtube and search for Paint 3D to learn through videos.

 

I've only looked at the program and I do see that Remix3D has an upload limit of 64MB, could be a problem.
