    Change the display scale for an individual application


    Hi,Windows 11.I have an old application which does not scale itself. I need it to scale to 125% to be readable -- the font it uses is too small.What I'd want:Set Windows scale at 100%Set the application at 125%However, I can't seem to find a way to do that. The Properties -> Compatibility -> Change high DPI setting can only go with either system or application.Is there a way to change the scale of an individual application to scale up?Thanks

    :)
