  1. Windows 10 update caused everything on my screen to be zoomed out?


    After updating my Windows 10 software on the 22nd, all icons, the taskbar, google chrome tabs, etc. became zoomed out. I changed the resolution from the recommended 1920x1800 to 1600x900. This fixed the sizing, but now everything looks more blurry because of the poorer resolution. I tried to work around this using the magnifier, but this did not work. I also tried looking at my display drivers - everything is fully updated, yet I cannot roll any back. I could do more manual driver updates, but I am not sure which ones correspond to my display.


    Are there any potential fixes? It seems very strange that a Windows 10 update would forcibly alter my screen like this.


    Thanks!

    :)

    TPU Capture Auto Zoom

    Not sure where else to post this since it isn't listed in the TPU Software section. But when I hit print screen it instantly zooms in. If I try to take a fullscreen shot it only takes the zoomed in window. Any ideas here?

      Advanced options, Startup Settings.

      and then press Enter.


    Note: Restart the computer to start in normal mode.

    Clean Boot and check.



    Step 2: Clean boot

    A Clean boot is troubleshooting option for Windows in which all the third party services are disabled and checked, if this services are causing the problem.

    Follow the Microsoft help article to perform clean boot.

    fixing the issue.
