DedupeHow to Change Auto-Backup between Full and Standard Resolution in Google Photos Backup?
Last Updated :
You can easily change the settings of Auto-Backup between full and standard resolution for future Google Photos upload. To do so, you need to download and install "Google Photos Desktop Uploader" on your computer. Once you have installed Google Photos on computer, you will see the "Photos" icon in the System tray of your computer (left in the clock). If you want to change the settings, then right-click the "Photos" icon and choose "Settings..." option. Here you can choose the setting which you like for "Photo size".
Here are the steps to Change the Size of Photo that you already Uploaded in the past:
- Keep your photos to other place on your computer, because we are going to delete your backed up photos.
- Delete the current online backup. You can follow the link provided here to mass delete Google+ Auto Backup Photos.
- Delete the trash bin in Google+ Photos. So the deleted photos are really gone.
- Stop "Google Photos Desktop Uploader". To do so, right-click the system tray icon and select "Quit" option.
- Delete the following folder: On Windows: %localappdata%GoogleGoogle Photos Backup, On Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Google Photos Backup/.
- Start "Google Photos Desktop Uploader" again. You will see it in your Start menu.
- Choose "Settings..." option.
- Choose the setting you like for "Photo Size".
- This way you can change Auto-Backup between full and standard resolution in Google Photos Backup.

PicBackMan does exactly what it's supposed to. It's quick and efficient. It runs unobtrusively in the background and has done an excellent job of uploading more than 300GB of photos to 2 different services. After having lost a lot of personal memories to a hard drive crash, it's nice to know that my photos are safe in 2 different places.

LOVE this program! Works better than ANY other program out there that I have found to upload thousands of pictures WITH SUB-FOLDERS to SmugMug!
Thank you so much for what you do! :) #happycustomer

I pointed PicBackMan at a directory structure, and next time I looked - all the photos had uploaded! Pretty cool. I use SmugMug and while I really like it, the process of creating directories in is pretty laborious when you need to make 80+ at a time. This was a breeze. Thank you!

PicBackMan was really easy to setup and has been running for 3 days now backing up all my locally saved photos to Flickr. My photos are really valuable to me so it's great to be able to have them easily backed up to a secure location.
Jim Griffin It's AWESOME!! I have tens of thousands of pictures...and they are now successfully uploaded to SmugMug, where they are safely backed up, and I can edit and organize them. If you are hesitating about using PicBackMan, hesitate no longer...try it...and you'll be glad you did!!

I started with the basic plan, went to premium and now on their platinum plan and it's more than worth the price for me. PicBackMan has saved me many tedious hours of effort moving many files between my various cloud and photo site services and my local computers.

I am very satisfied and surprised at the same time with Pic BackMan. The service is very good and useful. I used it to transfer my photos from Dropbox to my Flickr accound. I highly recomment it.

PicBackMan was an answer to many a prayer. How can I get this MASSIVE collection of photos onto a service that cripples uploading? PicBackMan. I uploaded approximately 85,000 photos in less than a month. It would have taken me close to a year to get all of those photos where they needed to go. Nothing short of brilliant.
Dary MerckensI have thousands of family photos and it's always been such a pain to upload them to various cloud services for offline storage. Well not anymore! PicBackMan makes backing everything up a complete breeze. I don't know how I ever lived without it!
Glen MartineauI was poking around the Internet looking for an easy tool to help me consolidate 15 years of my pictures from Google Photos and Flickr etc - this tool was very easy to use and was painless to setup.
