Microsoft Paint is a simple graphics painting program that is included with all versions of Microsoft Windows operating system. While Paint does not have a direct way, like a button, to create blurred effects to your photo, you can, however, use certain basic techniques that will give that blurred effect. Note that once you save the photo with the blur, it may be tough to remove it from the image. Back up your photo if needed.
