    Inconsistent font system wide and uncomfortable reading experience


    Why do the 'i', 'g', 'n', 'r', 'b' look thin on my external monitor? See the words 'Multitasking', 'Activation', 'Nearby' in the photo of my Systems menu, below. The text is sharp, but just appears inconsistently thin in certain areas. In other apps, reading is an uncomfortable experience because the letters look thin. The thickness of the letters don't appear to be consistent. The problem is everywhere - apps and OS. My external monitor is connected via HDMI to my Lenovo ThinkPad P16v laptop, Windows 11. There is no problem when I connect the external monitor to my Dell and Asus laptop

    System Wide fonts

    It has been discussed for years that there is no

    way to make a system wide font change in Win 10.

    I see a FB post titled

    "let us allow to change the fonts!"

    Please go look and upvote

    How do I change the font for my laptop system wide because currently I am not able to do this and I would like to change the font style since it has been the same thing for some time?

    Changing System Wide Font


    Good Afternoon,

    Win 10 Pro x64. Fully up to date as of 25-AUG-2015 @ 1647.

    I still cannot change the font system wide.

    Can someone please provide me with a Orthodox method to change the system font? Orthodox = non registry hacking.

    The "Install" button is still greyed out, and I have double checked to ensure that my scaling is 100% in both settings locations.

    Help would be appreciated.

    Sincerely and respectfully,

    Dave
