    Vastly Different Display Size shown in settings


    I have a 15in laptop screen that is usually running at 4k and a 32in monitor that is at 1080p. In the display settings, it shows the monitor as a lot smaller since it is only at 1080, and I was wondering if there was a way to make windows think that they are both the same size, so my cursor can go between my monitor and computer screen more smoothly.

    :)

    Why are UIs different sizes?

    Hello,



    Thank you for your response. I appreciate your time.



    I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below and check if they help:

    Step 1: Check for the latest driver update through Windows Updates.

    • At the Start screen, type Windows Update.
    • Click or tap Settings on the right side of the screen, and then select Install optional updates from the left results.
    • When the Windows Update control panel opens, click on “Check for Updates” on the top left corner to receive a fresh list of updates.
    Incompatible or not properly installed graphics card drivers are the most common cause of this issue.

    Step 2: Follow the steps below to update the graphics/display drivers.

    • Press Windows + X key on the keyboard.
    • Go to device manager.
    • Right-click your display device.
    • Click Update Driver Software and then follow the steps in the wizard that appears.

    Sincerely,
