    File Explorer - File Size


    Hi. In the File Size column in File Explorer the size is displayed in kBs. When the list of files contains extreme size variations, there is a necessity to have wide column to get the millions of kBs displayed. Also, having the display automatically adjust itself to a suitable factor would then save the trouble of trying to calculate the massive figure. Is there any way to make it display the size in other sizes, such as MBs, GBs or even just bytes? Or perhaps make it automatic, which would seem more preferable?

    Set minimum and maximum to a constant number as suggested by others, that will help reduce fragmentation on the drive coz of different page file sizing.

    Font Size File Explorer Windows 10

    Hi,

    To assist you, kindly provide us additional information.

    • Did you make any changes before the issue started?
    • Does it happen only with your File Explorer?
    • Can you please provide us a screenshot of the item that you want the font or the box to be adjusted?
    For the meantime, if you simply want to change the font size, we recommend that you follow the steps below:

    • Press Windows key + i to open Settings.
    • In the Settings, choose System -> Display -> Advanced display settings -> Advanced sizing of text and other items.
    • In Change only the text size drop-down, choose Icons. Adjust what size you prefer and click Apply.

    Let us know how it goes.
