Hello, I had on my old PC the editing software "Microsoft Photo Suite Editing", very useful in many ways, but I couldn't recover it to install it on my new PC because the old one crashed with no possibility of recovery.
How can I find this software, since Microsoft no longer distributes it?
Thank you in advance for your responses!
Best regards.

Configuration: Windows / Vivaldi 1.9.818.50

    Hello,

    let's say that the software you're talking about dates back to Windows XP.

    I can advise you to look into free software on one hand:

    Xnview, I used this one back in the day to reduce the size of images for making websites in training in png, it's good and powerful

    https://www.xnview.com/fr/

    Otherwise, you have Picasa for free:

    Then, a very efficient open-source software is Gimp, originally installed under Linux:

    it is the equivalent of Photoshop (the paid version)

    If you want to spend money, I can suggest Adobe Photoshop in a version that is usable for 7 days as a trial then paid

    either as a one-time purchase which is cheaper than a subscription

    https://www.amazon.fr/Adobe-65237571-Photoshop-Lightroom-6/dp/B00TDJHI36/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1497014469&sr=8-1&keywords=photoshop

    or through a monthly subscription, but the costs can add up faster (the more you have the training and support).

    that's all I can provide you.

    I wish you happy surfing...

      Thank you GPUI!
      I have several other photo editing software, but I was attached to this one because it allowed me to do certain edits or montages that I haven't found elsewhere.
      It's strange that it's impossible to get my hands on it again on the grounds that XP is gone...
      If anyone however... Thank you in advance.
      Have a good Sunday GPUI...
