  1. Lock the desktop for Zooming


    Dear all,

    I am using the ctrl + wheel function with my mouse to zoom on pictures I am working with, which is a nice feature. However, often the zoom is happening on the desktop, messing with all my icons. Is there a way to "lock" the desktop / icons size without disabling the zooming feature and without using a program to restore the location/size of the icons ?


    Thank you for your help

    :)

  2. Badly zoomed in on all Office products and Explorer

    Hi,

    I suggest you to try the below steps and check if it helps.

    • If you have a mouse with a wheel, hold down the Ctrl key, and then scroll the wheel to zoom in or out.
    • From the keyboard, you can increase or decrease the zoom value in 10% increments. To zoom in, press Ctrl + (+). To zoom out, press Ctrl + (-). To restore the zoom to 100%, press Ctrl+0.

    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are unable to get audio in Zoom. I’ll certainly assist you with the issue.



    However, please let us know:






    I would suggest you to refer the troubleshooting steps mentioned in the Zoom article
