file size reduction

About this tag
Windows 11 is introducing a native image compression feature directly within the Share menu, allowing users to reduce file sizes without altering resolution or opening separate apps. This tool offers low, medium, or high compression options and is currently in testing via the Windows Insider Program. The feature addresses a long-standing limitation of built-in utilities like Paint and Photos, which previously required resolution changes to shrink files. For users of older systems like Windows 7, file size reduction often involved workarounds such as dragging photos to the desktop, as seen in Picasa workflows. This new capability streamlines sharing and storage for digital images, digital art, documentation, and presentations.
