Correct colors of a scanned photo

There is one tool that does this phenomenally good, and that's:
  • paint.net: Adjustments > Auto-Level
I had a picture that had become "orange-ish", the Auto Correct function from Picture Manager made it even more orange, but the paint.net's Auto-Level function is a miracle and made the original colors to come back completely!!! It's a miracle!!!

The same went miraculously well for a scanned document, from which the white background was very yellowish/orangish.

Correct colors of a scanned document

Again, paint.net does the job tremendously well, but using another type of adjusmtent:
  • paint.net: Adjustments > Black and White
I had a scanned document, from which the white background was very yellowish/orangish, and using the above adjustment, it was correctly corrected :-)

Copy images to paste as image in a mail

  • this is not possible in Picture Manager
  • you can do this by opening them one by one in Paint
  • or you can use the Windows Photos app and then choose Share > Copy file - it's not the file that is copied however, but the image itself! - it's easier than Paint if you need to copy multiple images - in the Photos app, you can browse with Previous & Next buttons (left / right arrow)
