2 Reduce photo size
An easy way to reduce the file size of photographs is to
reduce their physical dimensions. Modern digital cameras and
smartphones take images at super-high resolution, resulting in
very large files. In Windows 8 and 10, you can open images in the
built-in image viewer and resize from the Options menu, or use a
dedicated image editor such as Paint.NET to resize.
