Windows 10: Magnifying Problem 500%

Ok so after loading up a video game it auto set my resolution of my monitor to 640x480 which is still readable and workable. The issue arrived when after closing the game and going into the resolution setting it wasn't able to be changed. Seeing I could magnify the screen by 500% I thought this would zoom out. To 5x the previous amount. I assumed incorrect. Now my screen is stuck with 0 way to access settings or reset the drivers or access the display menu. I did go into the startup menu but there wasnt a way to reset it and I also restarted the PC many times. Is there a keybinding other then

:)

Hey RXaverius,

I suggest you to follow the below steps to turn off the magnifier and check if it helps.

• Go to “settings” and click on “ease of access”.
• Then under the “magnifier” option “turn off” it.

Or also you can press the keys “Windows+Esc” and the magnifier will be closed.

For more information regarding magnifier refer to the below article and check if it helps.

Note: Also applies to Windows 10.

Hope this information is helpful.
