I don’t need to edit GIF, I only need add shadow in borders of animated GIF. Perhaps, correct its effect not named «shadow».

Did not help

For PNG I use ShareX and Greenshot programs, but if I try add shadow for GIF like for PNG, output black image for me. I not find answer for my question in Google.

Answer

Since v2.19, ScreenToGif lets you add dropshadows to your recordings/animations.

You can manually add the shadows while editing:

Or you can set a task to add the shadow after recording:

These are the exported animations (Gif and Apng):
