  2. Text Column Width in File Explorer After Changing Text Size in Setting

    1. I have tried the tip I mentioned in the original post, but that does not fix it. I can restore the text size, and that fixes it, but then I have small text. I want to have large text and "rows" in File Explorer that seamlessly adjust to the size of the system text. It is pretty obvious that the row height is fixed, and thus when the text size is changed, it does not adjust to accommodate the increase in pixels.

    2. Yes, this issue was present in Windows 10.

    3. It does not matter if File Explorer is full screen or windowed. I am pretty sure that anyone could replicate this issue by making the system font 200% and then opening File Explorer and View files as a list or detail.

    Font/Text Size of Drag and Drop Hint in File Explorer To Small

    Hi, when I drag files in Windows (10) file explorer, the icon is fine, but the font size of the hint (i.e "Move to..." or "Copy to...") is so small I can't read it. It used to be fine, not sure what I did to cause this. How do I restore or change that text back to something I can read. I searched for an answer, and rebooted, but no luck. Thanks!
