    My last update yesterday has screwed up my PC's appearance, text size, the entire look.


    My PC's updated overnight yesterday (12/15) and updates were automatically installed. When I logged in out of sleep, the entire picture was changed, text size, shapes, everything. My icons in the taskbar are so small I can hardly tell what they are. I need to go back or fix what happen so I can read what I want to do. Even my email message texts are screwed up.


    Sure hope someone can fix this mess and how do I stop it from happening again?

    Icon & text size

    To resolve your concern, we’d recommend that you follow the steps provided on how to change the font size. Here’s how to do it:

    • Right-click on desktop and select Display settings.
    • Scroll down and click Advanced display settings.
    • Scroll down and click Advanced sizing of text and other items.
    • Under Change only the text size. Select the item you want to change in the drop-down list and choose the text size.
    • Click on Apply.
    Let us know if the solution above works for you.
