MS Paint

Gimp is ok, but its free for a reason.

Photoshop is the only app you need, if you want any decent tools. Lite versions can be had for a reasonable amount, or free from *cough other sources

On that basis, have a look at Photoshop Elements. It's considerably cheaper than the full version and has all the basics you'd need to get started in photo editing.

It should do, but you may get some issues, as its not supported/no more updates from Adobe for it.
