Windows 10: Text Size Since Creators Update

Since the creators update my text size and browser icons are back to small size. I can't find the old display settings where you can adjust text size, bold, etc and icon size. DPI settings change the text size but also adjust the icons which are already the correct size. Hopefully that option isn't gone. Not where it use to be. *Sad

Internet Explorer 11 Menu font size

I just updated Windows 10 to the Creator version. I now find the ability to increase the text size on the IE11 toolbar and for the names of my Favorites is gone. Also the text size on the Word and Excel toolbars is so tiny it is barely readable. I had
to download and switch to Firebox for my default browser since Firefox offers the ability to increase and bold the text. Unfortunately, I cannot do anything about the text size for the Word and Excel toolbars. The text size is so small it is putting a severe
strain on my eyes. Why was this feature taken out of the Creator Update?

ever since windows creator update installed i can not change the text size on the desktop icons some of the options that were there before the update are gone.

 

Currently I am using that third party font and text adjuster that Old Mike suggested in another thread. Works for now but wish the Creators update hadn't removed the one that windows used previously.

I don't have those options since I updated to Creators. No Display icon in the control panel. I can go to display in the settings but those text options are not there. Those were the options I had before the update. Are you on the creators update and have those options?

 

Option Two has to be used in the Creators Update instead.

 

Thanks for the info. That third party program that Old Mike suggested is working perfect. I will also check out option 2 to see if it is any easier or better.

 

Option 2 are .reg files to set it. They can be handy to keep to merge them as needed without the need of 3rd party software.

 

Thanks for the info.

 

Thanks for that! I have used it to set the font to 11 regular in the File Explorer. It works well, except that the lower part of file names is cut off... For example the letter p is very short, and the letter g almost looks like a q as the bottom curve is not there. Is there anything that can be done about this?

 

Hello Archangel, and welcome to Ten Forums.

Other than changing the DPI scaling level to make everything larger instead, I'm not sure. *Sad
