OK firstly start Reshade Image Resizer, appears as Reshade in your programs list.
You may get some questions the first time you run the program, click on 'Yes' or 'No' depending on your preferences.

If you selected 'Yes' for updates, it's a good idea to select 'Yes' for the Windows Firewall too.



Reshade has a photo already loaded in when it starts, you can play around with that or load one of your own photos.



Click on 'File', then 'Open'.



Now navigate to your picture or photo to enlarge. As you can see I have chosen to work on the Koala photo.
Simply click on your chosen photo (or picture) and click 'Open'.

Now to enlarge your photo, see the arrow next to Width, simply click and hold on the arrows, now move the mouse away and the image will start to enlarge. Let go of the mouse when you have the desired size.



Here I have enlarged the photo 1000%, which is x10 the original.



To save it, click on 'File' and the 'Save As', this way you will keep the original image as well.



Now give it a different name, in this case, I have called it 'Koala-xlarge', then click on 'Save'.



The enlarged image will now be created and saved, depending on your system and image size, this process can take a little while.



Once the image has been successfully created click on 'Close'.
Repeat for any other photos to enlarge.

When you're finished, if you have made any changes to the settings you will be offered the option of save these settings.
