    Readability problems


    On my small 10.1 screen in a number of situations I am finding the text difficult to read, sometimes because of the size of the font, more often it is the colour of the font against the background. This applies to some apps and often with system popup windows. I have just seen an example of pale green on white but frequently text is pale grey or pale blue on a white background. Rather than the colour itself is a combination of how intense it is and the background. If I could I would ban all pale shade text from my machine. I am experimenting with dark mode, which again only helps sometimes, and sometimes I find it is better off rather than on.

    I have tried making changes in Settings without success. I have a small app called A+Text Change Size which works in some situations but not others. Zoom and the Magnifier can be used. But I would prefer to have the text displayed clearly in the first place. Suggestions?

    :)

    Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...


    That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
    a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
    b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

    I suggest Option 1 is easier.

    If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.

    Symbols instead of readable words

    I do have the Chinese fonts installed on my computer and the problem still occurs, which is why it puzzled me. Anyway, I have solved the problem with another suggestion. I simply opened it with Word and Word converted the fonts using an encoding that will
    make the words readable.

    Thanks a lot.
