Windows 10: Control Panel Display Settings Missing

Hi,


I am currently studying for a cert exam. The instructor goes to Control

• Panel > Appearance and Personalisation.

In there, he has two items in the list that my version of control panel does not have.

• Personalisation
• Display

Why don't these appear in control panel? Is it due to an update? Could I have settings or policies that are configured differently that would enable them somehow?

:)

Hi Kathy,

Wrong configuration settings may be the possible reason why the Display option is missing in your Control Panel. To assist you better, kindly answer the following questions:

• Are you referring to Display settings?
• Could you provide us a screenshot?
• What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

We're looking forward to your response.

Looks like version 1703 was the source of the problem. But the display settings I found are not as feature rich for fonts as they were before..i.e. changing the size of desktop icon fonts.

 

Missing Display Icon on Control Panel

Oh Where, Oh Where has the Display Icon gone? This has always been the first item on my Lesson Plans for new computer users. I have tried to resolve this issue with MS Tech help three times with no luck.

With the new update ( June 13) (Windows 10) the DISPLAY icon is missing in the Control Panel. This feature permitted the user to change the screen text and performed other display related tasks. Where is this important feature?

Screen Text Size
The first thing a computer user wants to do is resize and select a different font and larger font size.

• Select the Windows key
• Scroll down to Windows System
• Select Control Panel
• Select Display
• From the drop down list, select each heading
• From the drop select a text size for each
• Select Apply for the changes to take effect.
