    Using Windows 11 Home. Nvidia GTX-1650 graphics, desktop computer. The monitor is 32-inches and 3840x2160 resolution UHD. I have scaled up text in windows and the size of windows up to 175%... though 150% may ultimately be better. But the additional scaling is not applied to small windows like the windows that open when you install a new program/app on the computer... everything has TINY text, like 1 or 2 point text if you know what point size is in relation to text. If I select a file, then open the Properties window to see or change Properties, everything in the Properties window remains s

  3. App Display issues with windows 10

    Hi Michael,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

    As per the issue description you are facing issue with fonts which get messed up.

    In order to help you better, could you please confirm a couple of things:


    • Whether your computer is connect to a Domain?
    I would Suggest you to try these steps if the computer is not connected to a Domain.

    In Windows 10, you can now set DPI (Dots per Inch) scaling to make text and other items, such as icons, fonts, and windows, to display larger or smaller for all displays or per-display.

    Windows 10 DPI scaling improvements are primarily focused on:

    •Optimizing the usability and readability of high-DPI displays

    •Providing a uniform experience multi-display systems

    •Empowering developers to optimize app-specific scaling based on display DPI

    If you are running a screen resolution of 1366x768 on a tablet, chances are that UI will look good at 100% DPI settings. But what about when you connect your system to an external high resolution display? In Windows 8 you can choose either 100% to
    optimize the UI on the tablet display or up to 150% to optimize the UI on the external display. You have to compromise.

    Windows 10 takes care of this issue by supporting per-display DPI scaling to address. By default, Windows 8.1 will choose the optimum DPI scaling value for each display based on the value chosen for overall scaling in the control panel.

    You can change Modern UI text size by following the steps provided below.

    •Press Windows key

    •Click on Settings.

    •Click on System.

    •Click on Display.

    •Now change the font size according to your choice.

    Also refer these Microsoft articles:

    Hope this would help. If issue still persists post back with current status of your computer and result of proposed suggestion, we will be happy to assist you.

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Does it mean my HDD is useless?
