    Hello,

    I found these steps in this forum from back in 2010:

    Step 1:

    I would suggest you to try these steps and check whether it helps in fixing your issue.

    Open font settings by clicking on start, click on control panel, and then click on appearance and personalization, under fonts click on change font settings. And select the font size.

    Step 2:

    If you’re trying to change windows font size then please follow the steps below:

    To change Windows fonts

    1. Open Appearance Settings by clicking the Start button and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type window color, and then click Change window colors and
    metrics
    .

    2. In the Item list, click the part of Windows that you want to change the font for. For example, if you want to change the menu font, click Menu in the list. Then, make any of the following changes:

    · In the Font list, click the font that you want to use.

    · In the Size list, click the font size that you want.

    · In the Color list, click the font color that you want.

    3. Repeat these steps for each item that you want to make changes to, and then click OK.

    Does that help?

    Blurry fonts on using Windows default scaling with WSL GUI applications (HiDPI)

    Is there a way to fix blurry fonts in linux GUI applications when being run from WSL (Ubuntu 18.04) using the default Windows scaling? Things I have tried so far:

    With Xming:

    1. Tried disabling Windows scaling and setting it from linux side using GDK_DPI_SCALE=2.5, the problem with this is several things like context menu icons don't play nicely and are often not scaled. Without GDK_DPI_SCALE=2.5, applications are basically unusable since the text is extremely tiny.
    2. Tried installing all the fonts from C:\Windows\Fonts to C:\Program Files\Xming\fonts\TTF and running mkfontscale, couldn't make it work this way either.
    3. Tried using VcXsrv, has the same issue.

    Screenshots

    • Clion:

    • Comparison between emacs (WSL) and VS Code (Windows native)

    All the resources I have looked up so far:

    1. Why are WSL GUI apps rendered with blurry fonts with Xming?: The answer here is specifically for just firefox and electron based applications.
    2. Gnome-Terminal blurry on Xming: Doesn't have anything helpful in particular either other than a suggestion to disable scaling and using something else than Xming.
    3. DPI issues running GUI programs on a 4K screen: Suggests using VcXsrv.

    The main purpose of doing all this is to be able to run text editors(emacs)/IDE(Clion) from WSL. And, the reason I cannot install their windows equivalent is we develop only for linux.

    Few system details:

    Screen

    4K (3840x2160) - 15.6"

    OS

    • Windows: Windows 10 Home v1803 Build: 17134.345
    • WSL: Ubuntu 18.04 (Linux username 4.4.0-17134-Microsoft #345-Microsoft Wed Sep 19 17:47:00 PST 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
