I’ve used Vista “exclusive” programs on XP back in those days so I’m kinda curious how exclusive it really is if I could get the installer/files for it.

Shouldn’t be too hard, I expect it to be a single executable stored in C:\Windows\System32 , much like the current mspaint.exe. Copy it over, run, have fun

Wouldn’t surprise me if they lock it to the windows store. I hope I’m wrong!
