Microsoft is adding image editing and compression to its Windows Share feature – and I couldn’t be happier

Microsoft has released a beta update for Windows 11 version 23H2 that enhances image editing and sharing capabilities. This update allows users to edit and compress images directly within the Windows Share interface, enabling cropping, adjusting, and filtering without the Snipping Tool. The feature is currently available in the beta version, but its future in subsequent updates is uncertain. This development aids users in managing file sizes when sharing larger images and may reduce reliance on third-party compression tools. Users have expressed satisfaction with the stability of version 23H2 compared to version 24H2.

Windows 11’s built-in share tool is getting an image editor and compression feature

Microsoft is enhancing the system-wide sharing interface in Windows 11 by introducing image editing and compression tools. Users will be able to crop, rotate, highlight, draw, and compress images directly before sharing them. Recent updates have improved the share UI and integration with Windows Phone Link for easier file sharing between PCs and mobile devices. A new drop-down menu will appear at the top of the screen when a file is selected in File Explorer. The compression feature allows users to reduce the size of an image before uploading. The editing capabilities include options for cropping, rotating, marking up images, adjusting colors and brightness, and applying filters.
