Microsoft Paint, also known as MS Paint, has been part of the desktop operating systems since 1985. Or if you downloaded PNGs that aren’t genuinely transparent, a background removal tool can help. Paint’s new feature is convenient when you want to remove unwanted background objects from your picture. Microsoft officials explained users may want to remove background from images for many reasons, including something personal or professional. Microsoft is bringing the same functionality to Paint. You can have a clean new photo with just the object, especially if you accidentally downloaded a picture with an experience that does not match the look and feel of the primary object. Plenty of free or paid apps or websites remove backgrounds from images. This is similar to one of the most popular features of Adobe’s paid Photoshop – background removal, but Microsoft’s tool is completely free. You can now use Windows 11’s Paint app to remove the background from any image. It’s possible to download the new version of Paint with a background removal tool without signing up for Windows 11’s Insider Program.
