We all Know that Microsoft is gonna replace our paint with the new modern Paint known as Paint

3D. Since this paint preview 3D lacks some features like Ctrl+ Z ,Ctrl + V shortcut supports( we

don't know whether it will be included in the Original version of Paint 3D) and other notable features

we use in our Normal Paint App. Some of us may have an idea of going back to old paint if
