Microsoft works on a new method for Create animated GIFs on Windows 11Thanks to an update of the Couts which already works.
The creation of GIF (or GIF) is one of those things that have always needed to use a third part program; There are also many very popular web pages that allow you to create GIFs from a video.
Now Microsoft seems to have realized that he has already the best possible tool to create memes: the Cuts tool. Until now, this program has enabled screenshots and save desktop videos.
In a future update, The Couts tool will create animated GIFs From a recording that we make on the desk; In other words, we can create GIFs from any video, program or screen that we have.
It will work very simple. Once the cutting tool is at the start (pressing Imp Pant, for example), we must only Save the video we want to create a GIFAs it is possible to do in the application.
Once the video is recorded, we will see a new button on the right side that will allow us to create an animated GIF from the recorded video; In addition, we can Use the keyboard shortcut CTRL + G To access the same window.
First look at a new toy snipping tool feature at Windows 11: the possibility of quickly creating GIFs from screen recordings!
You will get options to export / copy the GIF, with a choice between low and high quality. This menu is also accessible with a keyboard shortcut, CTRL + G. pic.twitter.com/kbsvkhmdtk

As @phantomofearth showed in X, when accessing the GIFs creation tool, we will have the possibility of Create a high or poor quality gifDepending on the size of the file and the quality of the image we prefer.
Once the option has been chosen, the tool will allow us Save the .gif file in any folder And with any name. It is already as easy to create a GIF in Windows 11, without installing an additional program.
The application of cutting tools It is already installed on all Windows 11 computers New, it is therefore available for most users. The video recording option is complete and allows us to save a specific area or a window.
In this way, if we watch a video and we find a fun part that we want to become a GIF, all we have to do is reproduced it while we record it with the Cuts tool.
Esta nueva opción ha aparecido en una de las versiones en desarrollo de Windows 11, y por lo tanto, aún no está disponible para la inmensa mayoría de los usuarios. Microsoft tampoco ha confirmado el desarrollo de esta función.
Sin embargo, viene bien recordar que el lanzamiento de Windows 11 25H2 se espera para finales de este mismo año, y probablemente vendrá con una buena cantidad de novedades; no sería de extrañar que la creación de gifs sea una de estas.
