Windows 10: 4k monitor issues with font: Which Windows Registry entry is responsible to setup font size...

Hi, please note that this question is not about how to change dpi of a 4k monitor I see lots of confusion about similar questionsScope of the question is to identify the exact parameter that is responsible to increase the font size of the menu bar of a program, leaving dpi untouched. I hope that somebody has already solved this problem and can post a solution here.

Windows Explorer Font Size

How do I increase the size of the font in Explorer list view? I have already used the font adjustment slider in "Ease Of Access" but this doesn't change the font size in explorer. Explorer used to allow setting font separately in
settings but now there is nothing. I now have everything on the screen sized perfectly, EXCEPT the font in explorer. Am I missing something obvious? It wouldn't be the first time! Does this require direct registry entry?

Isn't it crazy? The input window I'm typing this question in allows text sizing (which I did for my sake), but NOT the explorer window.
