That's what I had assumed.
Thanks for the conformation.
Too bad that there (not yet?) any PowerToys for Vista. I'm seriously
missing TweakUI [siiiiigh].

Interesting! Did not yet detect the features. Thanks for telling me!
It seems to be some workaround:
- select the files,
- click on "email" and have them attached to a new mail,
- save the mail,
- then save the files from there.

Thanks for the reference.
Will have a look.

BTW: The "Batch Conversion" tool in Irfanview is really powerful.
One can - besides many other options - resize the content of a whole
folder in just one run.
