IrfanView is a FREEWARE (for non-commercial use) graphic viewer for Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10 and 11.
One of the facilities available on IrfanView is to change the size of the image file in Bytes, heavy images become lighter and easier to upload on the internet to share or load faster on websites. For example, an image with a size of 2.5 Mb is reduced to 200 kb without making any changes to the width and height of the image.
Through experience, IrfanView cannot resize images that are less than 1 MegaByte in size although there is no such statement from IrfanView's official website.
IrfanView can be downloaded from the official IrfanView website, available with option for Windows 32-Bit and 64-Bit.
