    Screen resolution changes when attaching or uploading an open file


    Hi,


    When I try to attach an Excel file which is still open to an email, the screen resoltion of all my open Excel files tabs in W10 change to something very strange. The same thing happen when upload an open Excelfile to a website.


    It doesn't have to do with Gmail as it also happens when I upload the Excelfile to a website.

    File preview in the Explorer is turned off.

    Zoom-seeting in Excel is still on 100% as usual.


    Button-bar also shows strange:

    Also the data in the rows/colums show very large.


    Any idea what's causing this? It's not happening on my old laptop with W10, this just happens on my newly installed laptop with W10 so it seems to be a Windows-thing....


    Thanks,

    Henk-Jan
