How to revert to the old Paint

I recently upgraded to Windows 11. Now I have a new version of Paint and, quite frankly, it sucks. Much of it is not like the Paint I'm used to and I can't seem to get the hang of how this new one works or to be more specific, doesn't work. Is there a way to downgrade to the version of Paint I had before the update as that would actually be an upgrade given how difficult the new version is being.

    Hello !

    Unfortunately, there's no official method to revert to the old version of Paint in the latest version of Windows 11.

    There are methods available online for recovering the old version, but I cannot guarantee that they will work or remain functional as updates are released.

    Please let me know if you have any other question !
