Windows 10: Adjust Window Pane Size on Larger Monitor

I recently installed a 32 in LG monitor replacing an older lower resolution 22 in unit. I thought a larger screen would allow for more active apps. What I have is the same app window panes simply scaled up. Settings allows for increasing the size of panes but not decreasing their size below 100%. I did reduce the icon size using that setting function. The video drive is the correct one for this LG monitor. The output resolution from my PC is 1920x1080 to match the monitor. Help!

Adjusting font size in Outlook folder list (2016/2019)

Hi folks
Is there a way to get this screen in Outlook 2016/2019.

Here in Outlook 2010 you can easily adjust the font size and type in the folder list (navigation pane) and other things which makes it much more readable on a large monitor - sometimes default fonts are too tiny - especially when viewed on large screens !!





I can't seem to get to similar screens in Outlook 2016/2019.
In Some places you can't set size either - you just get choice of small, large, larger !!!!!!! definitely a retrograde step IMO.

Screen size is larger than monitor

Hello,

Got a new monitor and the text is extremely small for me. ACER manufacturer recommends that settings for the size of text and apps be left at 100%, plus the Resolution at 1920 x 1080.

Since my eyesight is not that good, I opted to increase the size of text just to 125% and then asked to reboot computer. After the restart, the text had considerably gotten better, but the desktop icons got larger, half of the size of the icons were off the
screen on left-hand side. Lastly, the Start Menu button disappeared. Tried to get back the screen to normal, but still is larger than the monitor, also the Start Menu button disappeared. Checked for a magnifier on the screen and closed it.

(I know I can get settings through the action center, but can not get other tiles like photos, games, etc.)

Checked for drivers and they are all up-to-date.

Again, these are the issues:

1) Screen larger than monitor. Can not see anything on the left-hand side, having to snap each time to reduce their size has become a nuisance. Have tried different steps to reduce screen size to fit the monitor but it just is not working.

2) Lost “Start Menu Button”, because screen is too large.

3) Text is gone back to 100% and it's too small.

4) Desktop icons on task bar are also extremely small.

I would appreciate someone's help.

Thank you.
