How Do I Convert WebP to PNG on Windows 11?
As a designer, I often need to convert images, and Any2Pic has been my go-to for tasks like WebP to PNG conversions. It’s offline, which keeps things secure, and it’s quick and easy for handling batches without losing quality. Just load up the images, set the output, and it’s done—super reliable for all the projects I’m working on!
I followed this tutoiral ( works for me)

Now, Windows 11 doesn't come with a built-in WebP to PNG converter like an app specifically for that. But, don't worry, there are several ways to convert your files without needing to download anything fancy. Using Microsoft Paint:
- Open Paint: Just right-click on one of your WebP images and choose "Open with" → "Paint."
- Save As PNG: Once it's open in Paint, go to "File" in the top left corner, then select "Save as" and choose "PNG picture." That's it! Just give it a name and save it.
This method is more for individual images, so if you have a bunch to convert, let's look at batch conversion options.

It's actually quite simple to convert WebP to PNG using the built-in paint tool in Windows 11, but if I were to say, this method has several obvious drawbacks. Let's talk about the first one first. This method can only convert one picture at a time. Although it is not complicated to operate manually, it is a disaster if you have dozens or hundreds of pictures to convert. The efficiency is too low.
In addition, although the paint tool can open WebP files, sometimes it does not handle the color and quality of the picture very well. After saving it as PNG, the picture may look a little distorted or blurry, not as clear as converted with professional tools. I tried it several times before and did have this problem.
Finally, this method cannot be processed in batches, which is a waste of time. If you only convert one or two pictures occasionally, it's okay, but if you need to convert to WebP frequently, I will definitely not use this method again.
