    With the latest Windows update ".gif" files are no longer animated

    Well, to be able to view all your animated gifs, I suggest you set the default for opening them to Internet Explorer.

    Right-click on a .gif file. Select 'Open with > Choose another app'. tick the 'always use this app to open .gif files' box, select Internet Explorer from the list, then click OK.

    Windows10 suggestions for opening .gif files

    slow decoding of GIF images

    Hello again, Adi,

    Thank you for performing the troubleshooting steps. I have done research on this and animated GIF support is still fairly new and also somewhat demanding on phones.

    You said this was tested on imgur.com, but are there any other websites you are able to load GIFs from and have them work fine? It may be issues with that one website and it is worth a shot to try out others if you do have the time.

    Animated GIFs are fully supported, but they do require resources that some phones may not be able to handle while multi-tasking. I tried out a GIF, an animated one, on a DELL Venue Pro. It skipped occasionally and was a small GIF. It did not, however,
    come to an empty page.

    If you search
    GIF on the suggestions page for Windows Phone 7
    , many results come up. I recommending adding your votes to the list, even to just improve GIF support.

    Best regards,
