Windows 10: Shrink pics

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhh, just found out that there is no right click on a pic and then choose to shrink it in Win 10 like there was in Win 7.

when you say shrink, does it do this when the image is saved just after taking, or when you view it in the gallery?

Can anyone please tell me how to stop pictures i receive (as multimedia)shrinking to about a centimeter squared when i save them to images? I receive them as 'standard' but they shrink when i try to save them in my phone ... have tried getting picture
sent from different phones but still have same problem

 

I may not be remembering correctly, but that wasn't a default option in Windows 7, either. It sounds more like you had some graphics software installed, or a plug-in that handled the shrinking. I could be wrong, and I have to find a Windows 7 computer to check.

 

DeaconFrost is correct. There is no native context menu option in Windows 7 to shrink a picture but this could be added by third party software. There is an "Edit" option that opens the picture in Windows Paint program and it has limited resizing capabilities.

 

I figured it out. It had been a part of Windows Power Toys. Found it for Win 8, and tried it. It works. Right click on a pic or pics and you will have a resize option. Choose the size and it will save a copy. I found it at Image Resizer for Windows - Home

 

I use IrfanView for this, not quite as simple but it works.
