  2. File Explorer menu font not increasing

    I'm running Win 10 version 1903 (OS Build 18362.418) on a Dell XPS8910 PC running 1920x1080 resolution. I increased the font size in my File Explorer using Settings-> Ease of Use. However, it didn't increase the File Explorer menu font at the top. Any
    ideas on how to do that?

    Windows Explorer Font Size

    How do I increase the size of the font in Explorer list view? I have already used the font adjustment slider in "Ease Of Access" but this doesn't change the font size in explorer. Explorer used to allow setting font separately in
    settings but now there is nothing. I now have everything on the screen sized perfectly, EXCEPT the font in explorer. Am I missing something obvious? It wouldn't be the first time! Does this require direct registry entry?

    Isn't it crazy? The input window I'm typing this question in allows text sizing (which I did for my sake), but NOT the explorer window.

    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.
