    Bug: File Explorer is not showing "extra large icons"


    [COLOR=rgba0, 32, 96, 1]In File Explorer, the “Extra large icons” setting isnot working with a Dell XPS 15, Windows 10, 3840 x 2400. It displays icons in the same size as “Large icons.” It increases thespace around each icon but does not increase the icon size.[/COLOR]

    [COLOR=rgba0, 32, 96, 1] [/COLOR]

    [COLOR=rgba0, 32, 96, 1]If I move File Explorer to a 25” monitor that is 2560x 1440, the “Extra large icons” setting works. If I move it back to the laptop,that setting stops working.[/COLOR]


    [COLOR=rgba0, 32, 96, 1]Question for Microsoft: What is your ETA for fixingthis bug?[/COLOR]

  2. File Explorer not showing Extra large icons

    Hi,

    The icons might be set to appear in medium or small icons. For you to get extra large icons, follow these steps:

    • Open File Explorer.
    • Right-click in an empty space and navigate to View > Extra large icons.

    Let us know how it goes so we can further assist you.

    Regards.

    Bug: File Explorer is not showing "extra large icons"

    File Explorer not showing Extra large icons

    Hello,

    I have an Asus Zenbook Pro, with Windows 10 updated to latest. File explorer is not showing Extra large icons. It shows the same size as Large while increasing the space around each picture, but does not increase the size of the icon.

    My screen resolution is 3840 x 2160 and even the large icons appear so small. Please help!
