In Creators Update and above versions of Windows 10, there is a new option in the file context menu called Edit with Paint 3D for image file formats. The Edit with Paint 3D opens the image file in Paint 3D app.

As you might have observed by now, the Edit with Paint 3D context menu option appears only when you right click on a picture file. In other words, the option appears when you right-click on JPEG, BMP, PNG, GIF, TIF, and TIFF image file types.

The Edit with Paint 3D option is added by an app called Paint 3D app. If you don’t know, the Paint 3D app is introduced with Creators Update for Windows 10. Although the Paint 3D is an alternative and update to the classic Paint program, the classic Paint program continues to be the part of Windows 10.

The new Paint 3D app is designed to help users create 3D objects using regular keyboards, mouse, touch screen and stylus. You can open regular pictures with Paint 3D app and create 3D objects out of it.

The Paint 3D is certainly a step ahead of the classic Paint program, but there are many users who use third-party image editing tools like Paint.net to get their job done.

If you use the built-in classic Paint or a third-party image editing tool, you might want to remove the Edit with Paint 3D option from the context menu in Windows 10.
