    How to do this effect; image in black and white with a adjustable circle over the image where it still shows the original color. (see image attached below)
    I used to do it with one of the options found in Windows 7, but now I could not find it.
    What other image editors, can I do this effect?

    1. Open your image in Adobe Photoshop.
    2. Duplicate the image layer (Right-click > Duplicate Layer).
    3. Convert the duplicated layer to black and white (Image > Adjustments > Black & White).
    4. Create a layer mask for the duplicated layer (click the layer mask icon).
    5. Use the Elliptical Marquee Tool to draw a circle over the area you want in color.
    6. Fill the circle on the layer mask with white (Edit > Fill).
    7. Deselect the circle (Ctrl+D / Cmd+D).
    8. Adjust the circle's size and position with the Move Tool (V).
    9. Fine-tune the effect by adjusting layer opacity if necessary.

    One way to achieve this effect is by using a photo editing software like Adobe Photoshop or GIMP.
    In Photoshop, you can use the "Adjustment Layer" feature to create a black and white image with a colored circle overlay.
    GIMP offers similar capabilities through the use of layers and masks to achieve the desired effect.
    Alternatively, there are online tools like PicsArt or Canva that also offer similar editing options for creating this effect.
