Using XP SP2 on a desktop.
On opening 'My Pictures', selecting picture(s), and then either
right-clicking them or selecting 'File', I have a command 'resize pictures'.
(Also works with any *.jp*, *.bmp, etc., elsewhere in 'My Docs'.) I have
not seen this until recently, and I don't know where its come from!! Can
anyone tell me its origin, what I have done to get it, etc.. I ask because
my wife, also using XP SP2, on her laptop, hasn't got it and is quite
jealous - she wants it!

Thanks

Hi Envo,

The "Resize Pictures" context menu entry is added when you install the Image Resizer PowerToy from Microsoft.

Microsoft PowerToys for Windows XP:

What did you install?
Any applications for cameras, etc?

Maybe the Image Resizer Powertoy?
This PowerToy enables you to resize one or many image files with a
right-click.

There is a joke or a "burn" in there somewhere.
