Windows 10: Scaling Issues In Windows Explorer And Related Dialogs

I am running windows 10 1903
I am having this weird issue that happens when I have an external monitor hooked up to my laptop. My laptop is at 125% scaling because it is a high dpi panel, but my external monitor is an old HP with only regular dpi scaling. The thing is recently file explorer windows and dialogs and other things like paint look blurry and misscaled on my external monitor.
If I restart explorer at 100% scaling it looks fine but when I have it at 125% and restart explorer and mspaint and other file explorer dialogs like properties and folder options they look weird. The thing is it only started happening recently and it always looked normal earlier. Maybe it is a problem with windows update? The weird thing is that when I open a word processor that looks right on both monitors and open a file the explorer dialog looks normal; when I move it on both monitors. Please help. If it is a problem with updates hopefully there is a way to fix it.

Windows 10 Creator's update - Every time I undock, scaling goes to 150%

We appreciate that you have checked your drivers and followed the suggested troubleshooting steps. Since the issue is still the same, this can be related to the new customer scaling settings that came with the Creator's Update. Can you follow the steps below
so we can check it for you:

• Click on Start then Settings.
• Choose System then Display.
• Under Display, select Custom scaling and set it to 100%.

Update us on how it goes as we are eager to get this resolved for you.

 

Microsoft Internet Explorer renamed to Windows Internet Explorer ?




Since version 7 of the world`s most popular web browser - Microsoft Internet Explorer was silently renamed to Windows Internet Explorer.Such a step from Microsoft is not a surprise since Internet Explorer is part of the Windows operation system for a long time.Obviously Microsoft corp. wants to state that Internet Explorer is already considered as a part of Windows and not as an external browser (remember the IE and WMP law issues last year!?).
