  1. "Show Windows Stacked" option has changed default window sizing.


    I've unwittingly clicked "Show Windows Stacked" in the taskbar context menu. I clicked "Undo Windows Stacked", which undid that, but now anytime I move a window anywhere, or when a window opens, it is a relatively small rectangle, instead of full-size like normal. How do I fix this?

    Windows 7 + GPU-Z size issue

    It should be noted that w1zzard is aware of this issue, what we want is more people with the same problem to come forward and report any information they can.

    Problem: GPU-Z is too big.

    Thats my GPU-Z on the right, sitting on top of a browser window (the GPU-Z page) showing the size difference.


    How to reproduce it:

    1. Must be running windows 7
    2. Must be on a high resolution display (1080p and above?)
    3. windows must DEFAULT you to the following setting of 125%

    The exact problem is that when you are defaulted to 125%, everything is made larger.
    When you drop to 100%, GPU-Z doesnt drop with it.


    This same problem used to occur on CPU-Z as well, screenshot for proof

    We just anyone else with this issue to step forward, w1zzards not going to bother fixing it if its just me.


    notes:
    • if you default to 100%, you can change up and down problem free
    • we beleive the default is chosen when you install windows, but we arent sure.

  3. How to change font size in Windows 10 and set them to default?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

    As your concern is about changing the font size, do let us know the following to assist you better:

    • Are you referring to font size in Windows operating system/ with in the Windows Live Mail?

    If you are referring to font size in Windows operating system, try the below and check if it helps.

    Step 1: Steps to restore the default font settings.

    • Press Windows key, type font and select
      Change Font Settings
      .
    • Click on Restore default font settings.
    • Sign-out from the current user account and re-sign in and check if it helps.

    How to bring Windows to it's default size in Windows 10


    I know the question might sound a little wired but here is the issue I accidentally faced with my Windows 10 PC. You can follow the below instruction to replicate the same issues in your Windows 10 Environment.

    If you right click on the task-bar and select and of the following options, i.e.
    • Cascade windows
    • Show windows stacked
    • Show windows side-by-side

    "Show Windows Stacked" option has changed default window sizing. [​IMG]


    you will see that all of your windows sized will be automatically changed to either very small or very large. Now I didn't find any way to undo it and bring my windows size to the previous default one (what was after the Win 10 installation) except manually streaking each window to almost the default size, but again it's not perfect.

    So do any of you guys know a way to change the window size back to normal what we get after installing the Windows 10 OS? Please share if you found any solution.
