Crop picture using Paint

Hello Karen,

You need to go to the original picture file. As you can only undo cropping or other changes while the undo option in edit menu is active, usually early on when file is open in programme editing with. Just after doing the cropping.

So hopefully you didn't crop picture then write over its original file. You saved it { save as } to a new file. If you did overwrite original file after cropping; then you will need to relocate this original picture from the source it came from to access original composition, size etc. If from your camera then simply re transfer to your computer & open it there.

If you're not sure about where it is on your computer then you can do an open search by typing in part of the file name or file format { part after the dot in filename & go through the results lists to try & locate it.

Hope this helps.

and what u use to crop?

Open your picture on Paint.

Crop it a bit. Save the file as JPEG picture.





Thanks for using fixya!

Your best bet is to download the photograph and crop it in Microsoft paint (or any other editor) then re-upload to Facebook.
Unless you wish to use the picture as your profile picture, in which case just click "use as profile picture" and crop.

Here is an easy way how to do it.
• log in to your facebook account
• go to your Profile
• click on the photos tab
• select the photo you want to set as your profile picture
• click "Make Profile Picture" on the options located on the lower right side of your picture

Hope it helps..

Can't you just crop it on your pc, THEN upload it again, overwriting the current one?

Hi I'm having a similar problem and haven't managed to fix it. Have you solved it? Thanks Martin
