Re Windows 10 Magnifier

Hi Bill,

Do the magnifier options help? When magnifier is open, you can point the cursor to the magnifier icon on the taskbar and there is a gear icon. Clicking on the gear icon opens the settings for the magnifier.





There is a setting "Have the magnifier follow the insertion point."

Re Windows 10 Magnifier

I think I know why you don't see the setting. You use the magnifier in "Lens" view. In Lens View, when you click on the settings gear, you only get the settings for the Lens view. If you have the magnifier in Full Screen mode, then click on the settings
gear, then you get more options, like "Have the magnifier follow the insertion point."

My personal preference is for Full Screen view. Sometimes if I'm just browsing the web, I change the zoom setting on my browser instead of using the magnifier.
