MS Paint - customize Quick Access bar?

In Windows 10, I can customize the MS Paint Quick Access tool bar to add or remove icons. As in:



I do this to replace the "dangerous" Save button by "Save as". "Dangerous" as it is all to easy to overwrite an image file.

I cannot find a way to do this in Windows 11. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Depends on which version of Paint you are using. I don't think there is a Quick Access bar on the new Paint App!

But one can get the 'classic' paint version for Windows 10 & 11 here:

Winaero classic Paint

That's what I use!
(Yet another "Why did MS remove this" thread!!! )

Thank you, all. The Paint version here is: Paint 11.2208.6.0. (It is not "Paint 3d".)

Do yourself a favor... start using Paintshop Pro.
I recommend version 7.04, but version 4.12 is easier to get started with.

Try to obtain the version @OAT posted about in post #3.

The finest. That one didn't need any changes.
Not all changes are improvements.
