    Start Menu changing size after playing games


    Not sure how else to describe this. It's not really a problem, more of a concern. After I play a certain game on Steam, or maybe any game (not sure) when I exit the game I find the font in the window for the game has increased meaning it then exceeds the size of the window slightly, and my start menu become massive with larger font. Not sure if that makes sense. It goes back if I restart and sometimes if I reopen the game (without starting the whole game up) it reverts back then. Why is it doing this, and how do I stop it? I don't like it when computers start doing weird things. It also started doing this after I got a prompt from Nvidia to update the drivers on my graphics card. I haven't done this yet, but I did create an account with Nvidia using the app so maybe related to that.. I find some of these games and their clients (eg. Steam, Ubisoft) cause the settings on my UI to change temporarily sometimes.

    :)

    Start Menu changing size after playing games

    Start Menu size

    We can make the Start Menu taller/shorter (mine is as short as it gets) & wider/skinnier (mine is as skinny as it gets).
    Is there a way (perhaps through the registry) that we can change the size limits? I'd like mine even skinnier.

    Also, how can I change my Games Start Menu folder to use an icon that is full sized? When I do change the icon, it's small on top of the blue square.
