    Are there any ways to make high-DPI scailing less crappy yet?


    I tried ti again today after waiting around two years to see if Microsoft improved the setting at all, and I'm still so disappointed. It still makes some apps look terrible, it still causes my mouse DPI to increase for no reason, and it also messes with the icon layout on the dekstop. How is this still so terrible? Are there any ways to make it better? As someone with a visual impairment, the fact that Windows is the most popular OS on the desktop just pisses me off now.

    Regarding High DPI Scaling Behavior In Windows 10 (p)

    Hi David,

    High-DPI scaling improves the way Windows 10 handles automatic scaling per-monitor, which reduces the amount of blur or incorrect size for legacy apps. Here are the three scaling options:

    • System (Enhanced) will make the text and interface look crispier and elements will be sized correctly. This new option will override the way that a particular app handles the DPI scaling, which can result in interface elements and text
      being blurry, and allows Windows 10 to take care of the scaling.
    • Application used to be referred as "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings." Using this option will force the app to run on a per-monitor DPI awareness.
    • When you enabled System, Windows 10 will stretch the interface, bitmap elements, and text will be blurry. This is the standard way Windows 10 handles scaling.

    The new DPI scaling settings are only available for traditional desktop (GDI-based) apps. Windows Store apps cannot be configured with these options because they're already optimized for high pixel density displays.

    Should you need additional information, do let us know.
