  1. Windows 11 Reduce size of context menu font to match legacy menu


    Hello and hope you are good.Basically the new context menu font size is too big compared to the legacy menu, does anyone have any idea on how to reduce the size so it's consistent with the rest of the OS.Also like to reduce the font size in the settings menu to be consistent with the rest of the OS.It would be great to see the font the same size as the desktop icons.Thanks again and hope to speak soon.

    :)

    Internet Explorer 11 Menu font size

    Hi Larry,

    Follow these steps to change the font size in IE11:

    • Click Start menu or press Windows key on your keyboard.
    • Type and click Control Panel.
    • Click Appearance and Personalization and under Display, click
      Make text other items larger or smaller.
    • Under Change only the text size, choose the Title bars
      in the drop-down menu and the desired font size on the drop-down menu beside it.

    Let us know if the suggested steps helped.

    Agitated with context menus

    We're just saying that the context menus should be dark with the dark theme and light with the light theme with the same font size, width, and overall look. We believe it would make the Windows experience more uniform and simple. That, in a nutshell, is
    the point here.

    And this is why we're unhappy:

    All these different menus don't match. Why not just make them one color, one size, and one style? And better yet, it would be great if they matched the theme color.

    My view on the matter is this: When parents are teaching their kids how to use Windows, we don't want them saying "Right-click here to open the file explorer menu," or, "Do this so you can open the taskbar menu." We want the to say, "Right-click to open
    the menu." Notice that was simply "the menu."

    Context menus should be identical in style: font size, color, menu size, etc. so that they will be simply "the menu." More on color: they should at least be all dark with the dark theme and light with the light theme, but I think they ought to match the
    theme color when "Show color on Start, taskbar, action center, and title bar" is enabled

    Custom context menu entries

    So, just throwing this out there, in case somone knows.

    I have added a custom context menu entry for the program rightload, since by default the menu is broken in vistax64.

    It works pefect with single files, but when I select mutiple files and try to open, I get mutiple instances of the program (which makes sense), here is my entry:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Rightload\Rightload.exe --server=1 --autostart %1

    So the %1 passes the filename to the program, and when I select multiple files it is just opening multiple instances of rightload each with a different file.

    What I'd like to do is be able to pass a list of the files selected to the program. Since I know it is capable of uploading multiple files from the context menu, all in one instance.

    So, is there something I can pass besides %1 that will do this? I have looked around and can't seem to find an answer anywhere... *Frown Windows 11 Reduce size of context menu font to match legacy menu :(
