  1. Win10 default font: Can we adjust the weight?


    I searched online and found nothing.I searched Microsoft's Help and found nothing.Is this impossible? It seems really thin. Especially on a white background. I'd just like to increase the weight of the font a little. It seems in Settings its a really stripped down version of the real settings but that often seems buried, almost as if they don't want you going there. Like they're trying to keep you in this dumbed down area. Is Win11 like this? Worse? Better? I wonder how many deficiencies I notice in Win10 are fixed in Win11. Or are they more glaring in Microsoft's never ending quest

    :)

    Excel change default comment font weight


    In Excel 2010 the default comment font has been bold for me for as long as I can remember (even in a fresh install in Win 10). In this post Title Bar Text Size - Change in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums The common fix of changing the tooltip font works for the font size but not the font weight. I have used Kutools to change all comments to regular weight in the past but it's unstable in Win 10 and causes problems with other software. I know that I can type a character, hit ctrl-B and get the next character to regular weight but then I have to go back and delete the first character. Hitting ctrl-b immediately doesn't work. Obviously this is clunky and time wasting. Using Kutools tools in the past it changes the font weight for the entire comment, including the bold commentor name. I want it to function like I see in any example I can find, which always was the commentor name in bold and the rest of the comment regular weight. As far as I remember that was the case in every version of Excel I used before 2010.

    Adjusting font size in Outlook folder list (2016/2019)

    Hi folks
    Is there a way to get this screen in Outlook 2016/2019.

    Here in Outlook 2010 you can easily adjust the font size and type in the folder list (navigation pane) and other things which makes it much more readable on a large monitor - sometimes default fonts are too tiny - especially when viewed on large screens !!

    I can't seem to get to similar screens in Outlook 2016/2019.
    In Some places you can't set size either - you just get choice of small, large, larger !!!!!!! definitely a retrograde step IMO.

    Cheers

    Changing default font of Sticky Notes (in Win10)

    I recently upgraded fromWin8.1 to Win10 and noticed the StickyNotes default font is still Segoe. How can I change it to either of:

    • Arial size 10
    • Cambria size 11
    • Any other font (any other size)
    Thanks.
