Paint 3D is a useful tool for resizing images. However, it is not straightforward to check the size of an image in Paint 3D, as the size in kilobytes or megabytes is not displayed in the same way as in Paint. While the pixel dimensions are visible, the overall size of the image is not shown. This is a common issue that users have faced, and there are some suggested workarounds, such as using the Feedback Hub app to contact Microsoft directly.

What You'll Learn
How to check image size in Paint
To check the size of an image in Paint, you must first open the image in the Paint program. To do this, locate the image file on your computer, right-click on it, and select "Open with". From the pop-out menu, click on "Paint".
Once the image is open in Paint, you can view its dimensions in pixels by clicking on the "Image" section of the Home tab at the top of the Paint window. From the drop-down menu, select "Rectangular selection" or "Select all" to highlight the entire image. Right-clicking on your selection will bring up a context menu, where you can view the image's pixel dimensions.
If you want to view the image's size in terms of file size (e.g. kilobytes or megabytes), the process is a little different. In older versions of Paint, the file size may be visible at the bottom edge of the window. However, in newer versions, such as Paint 3D, the file size may not be displayed directly within the program. In such cases, you may need to resort to checking the file size in the folder where the image is saved.
When resizing an image in Paint, it is important to note that reducing the image's dimensions or cropping it will also decrease its file size. Enlarging an image, on the other hand, will reduce its quality. It is always a good idea to work on a copy of the image rather than the original file to avoid any unintended modifications.

It is important to note that resizing an image will affect its file size. If you need to resize the image, it is recommended to work on a copy of the original file to avoid modifying the original image.

Resizing an image in Paint
To resize an image in Paint, it is recommended to first make a copy of the image you want to resize so that you can still access the original image if needed. To do this, go to the image, right-click it, and select "Copy" from the drop-down menu. Then, right-click an empty space in the folder or on the desktop and click "Paste".
Now, open the copy of the image in Paint. You can do this by right-clicking the image, selecting "Open with" from the drop-down menu, and clicking "Paint" in the pop-out menu. Once the image is open in Paint, click "File" in the top left corner of the window, then click "Open" in the drop-down list that appears, and select the image you want to resize.
Next, click the "Resize" button, which can be found in the middle-right section of the toolbar at the top of the window. Make sure that )" is selected at the top so that your image's changes will be measured in percentages. For example, changing the image's values to 75 will result in it becoming 3/4 of its original size. If you know the exact horizontal or vertical pixel count you want, you can select "Pixels" instead.
You can now enter the desired dimensions for your image. If you want to change the Horizontal and Vertical variables independently, uncheck the "Maintain aspect ratio" box to prevent your image from becoming distorted. Finally, type a percentage between 1 and 500 into the "Horizontal" text box to shrink or expand your image, then click "OK" when you're done.
After resizing your image, remember to save it by clicking "File", then "Save As", and selecting the desired image type and save location.

Checking image size in kilobytes/megabytes
To check the size of an image in kilobytes or megabytes in Paint 3D, you need to first open the image in the Paint program. You can do this by clicking "Paint" in the pop-out menu and then opening your selected image.
Once your image is open, you can resize it by clicking "Resize" under the "Image" section in the toolbar at the top of the window. This will open a Resize window, where you can adjust the size of your image. Make sure that "Percentage" is selected at the top so that your image's changes will be measured as a percentage of its original size. For example, changing the values to 75 will make your image three-quarters of its original size.
You can also check the "Maintain aspect ratio" box to ensure that your image doesn't become distorted when resizing. If you want to resize the image to a specific pixel count, you can select "Pixels" instead of "Percentage."
After making your desired changes, click "OK" to save your resized image. Unfortunately, it appears that Paint 3D does not display the overall image size in kilobytes or megabytes, only the dimensions in pixels. However, you can use the Resize feature to adjust the image size and save it as a different file format, which may reduce the file size.
