    Windows is scaling it's native software strangely


    Is anyone else having this problem? When I have things scaled to 100% everything looks peachy (albeit a tad small to read for my aging eyes), but when I scale to 125% (the recommended setting on my laptop), I get this odd issue where everything bounds to a smaller box in the corner, with a lot of filler.

    Here's a screenshot that shows what I'm talking about.

    I get a very similar issue with the "Your Phone" app, as well. My notifications on the taskbar also are off the screen, so I am guessing it is something to do with native windows applications, perhaps? If anyone knows how to resolve this issue, please let me know!
