Files & Folders View as medium or large Icons

To assist you better, we would suggest that you try to follow the steps below:

• Open File Explorer.
• Once you are viewing a folder, right click an empty space within the File Explorer window and select View from the dialogue menu, then choose Large or any icon you wanted to use. Alternatively, you can use the following shortcut keys on the keyboard to
  change your View settings:

• CTRL + SHIFT + 1 Extra Large
• CTRL + SHIFT + 2 Large icons
• CTRL + SHIFT + 3 Medium Icons
• CTRL + SHIFT + 4 Small Icons
• CTRL + SHIFT + 5 List
• CTRL + SHIFT + 6 Details
• CTRL + SHIFT + 7 Tiles
• CTRL + SHIFT + 8 Content

3. Once you have the view set, you can make it the default view for

every folder.

4. Click Apply, then click OK.

Windows 10 LARGE shortcut Icons are the same size as Medium Icons

Hello guys,

Ok, I created some custom large icons for my folder shortcuts. I wanted the picture to fill the icon square space. The icon looks exactly the way I want it. But when I apply the icon to the shortcut, its the same size as the Medium icon except the so-called
large one has a big thick border around it.

I tried using CTRL and scrolling the wheel and the icon stays the same but the surrounding border or padding gets bigger--not the picture. This is strange to me because if I put the same ICO file along side the folder, the ICO file is much bigger about twice
the size of my shortcut icon.

I'm very disappointed that I can't get my shortcut icon to fill the whole icon space.

Any thoughts or suggestions? Am I just going to have to live with this? It doesn't make sense to allot that much space to an icon but just fill it with empty space. The medium and the large are the same size!

You can see in the attached picture below. The actual ICO file is much better. When I apply that icon to the shortcut it is the same size as the medium with more padding. Below the first row, the View is set to Extra Large, but the only thing that changes
is the padding around the picture. Its not extra large at all. The picture is swamped in a sea of nothing!

 

Use of size: parameter Windows 10

Hi TerryCritchley

you could use the Group by function in file explorer

select the view ribbon in file explorer and in "current view" section select group by then size.

you should then see group headings such as huge, large, medium, small and tiny
