  1. Return to normal resolution


    Everything is huge on my screen even though in display the settings are set at the recommendations. When following directions to reset the resolution or the display, when typing "Display" in the search field under Control Panel, The information for Display is not available at all. This is with Windows 10. I don't want to customize under Advanced Setting for fear I might create a bigger problem. I've rebooted my desktop several times hoping it would auto reset, but without success. I remember a simple one-click solution with Windows 8, but I'm at a loss as to how to return everything - desktop content, icons, any opened file or Google browser, tool bar icons back to the normal view. I do not have Magnify on - it is off. Help someone!

    :)

    Desctop got 2/3 of the normal size

    Hello,

    This should be resolved by updating the screen resolution for your display. Kindly follow the steps below:

    1. Open Start , select Settings > System > Display.
    2. Under Scale and layout, check the setting under Change the size of text, apps, and other items. We suggest you use the percentage marked "(Recommended)."
    3. If that doesn't solve your problem, under Resolution, select a new value. We suggest you stick with the resolution marked "(Recommended)."

    Let me know how it goes.
