    How do I enlarge the taskbar & address bar views?


    I can click view on the task bar (Firefox) and then click zoom out to change the font sizes on the page I'm on. What I can't figure out is how to permanently change the font size on the task bar & address bars. Does anyone know?

    Thank you,

    TRS

    :)

    IE11 Address Bar Tiny! How do I enlarge?

    Hi,

    I have the same problem, but in my case the toolbar text is too large (appearance on the second monitor - set to 2560x1440). On the surface pro the text is set text size 175%, the monitor text size set to 100%. All programs (such as File Explorer or Google
    Chrome) come up in the expected text size on both screens. Only IE11 (Toolbar) is normal on the Surface Pro 3 screen, but becomes huge on the monitor (content remains normal). This is not happening using google Chrome. There must be a way to adjust the tool
    bar text size with IE11 depending on the Screen resolution.

    Anyone else who can help. My only solution is to us Google Chrome.

    IE11 Address Bar Tiny! How do I enlarge?

    I am experiencing this same issue and have not been able to find a resolution. the address bar is using a font size of 4 it seems while everything else is 9 point. this problem only occurs on 1 of my 3 laptops. This laptop and IE11 with Win 10 was working
    fine for a long time and then one day the address font size shrunk.
