    Why are all my apps, icons and browsers suddenly bigger?


    Out of nowhere yesterday my whole pc bar some games are all more zoomed in/scaled. My desktop apps take up more space icons are medium, as they have always been - now are 17 icons wides and 6 long, my taskbar is bigger and even my browsers are more zoomed in than normal zoom is 100%.I've looked into the scaling option on display settings, it's 100%. I tried changing it to 125% and changing back to reset it but that hasn't helped. My resolution is correct, and I haven't changed anything else.Can anyone help me out?

    :)

    Font size suddenly became bigger.

    I am facing this unique issue and the font size suddenly changed to a bigger size. I tried updating the system and drivers but still could not solve it. Even the Icon texts on the desktop also have become bigger. I have attached a screenshot of the issue. Kindly help me solve this. Tried finding solutions but couldnt solve the issue.

    Thank you in advance *Biggrin
