          Jokes aside you can boot Windows without Windows at all. By that I mean you can boot Windows NT without Win32.

      They did. I guess the community outcry was so loud even Microsoft had to heed it and reverse course.

      I thought so too. I remember looking for alternatives for when it would be removed completely.

          I honestly didn’t realize I had been installing it… I went to boot paint.net and was surprised I couldn’t find it on my work computer… that’s how critical it is… or how often I don’t change personal hardware

      No. Wordpad is the one being discontinued. Paint is one of several programs that can now be uninstalled from Windows by end users without any special tricks.
