  1. Photos keeps displaying screen captures in small sizes


    Recently this started happening (screen capture attached); I don't know whether it was a Windows update or my new laptop with which I use two external monitors simultaneously...Windows Version 20H2 (19042.867).

    I use the magnifier to increase it but it's annoying and I didn't used to have to do it.

    :)

  2. Size of display on screen

    Hello

    Thanks - I have tried this but I don't think this is the problem..... Resolution is set at recommended level

    If I follow these steps: control panel-personalisation-display, customise your display it then says "change the size of text, apps and other items" and this is set at 100% which is recommended.

    However, with it set at 100% all the icons on the desktop are too small and when I open outlook the emails are very small to read, but if I open a webpage e.g. the Times newspaper, everything is the correct size but the page doesn't fit to the edges of the
    monitor screen like it used to.

    So If i go back into control panel - personlisation etc and set the size of text to 125% (it won't let me set it anywhere between 100% and 125%), this makes the desktop icons the correct size, and emails are readable, but when I re-open the Times newspaper
    online everything has become too large and yet the page still doesnt fit to the edges of the monitor screen!

    Any further suggestions?

  4. Photos keeps displaying screen captures in small sizes

    Size of display on screen

    We have windows 10 which has been working fine until last week; now although the desktop icons are the correct size when I open a web page, everything is too big, and the webpage doesn't fit to the size of the monitor screen - there is a small border around
    the sides and the top of the webpage.

    It is driving me mad - I have gone into control panel and onto display to customise display; if I set the slider bar to 100% it makes everything on the desktop too small and reading emails everything is too small, although if I open a webpage it is the correct
    size, but if I slide it across to 125% everything is too big when I open a webpage, although the desktop icons are the correct size!!

    Any suggestions?
