  1. windows update pops up a big blue dialog box saying a restart is due soon


    One of the buttons on the big blue dialog box is "Restart now". Clicking that button does absolutely nothing. I have to open the settings > update screen and click the restart button there to actually get it to restart now. Is everyone seeing this same thing?

    :)

  2. Windows 10 Edge Print Dialog Box Too Big

    +1 on suggestion 3. The dialog box is definitely too big. If the extra real estate for the dialog box is necessary for touch interface, just rearrange it to make it wider and shorter.

  3. Windows 10 Edge Print Dialog Box Too Big

    Hello,

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community and providing us with the detailed description about the issue.

    As per the description, I understand that you are experiencing issue with Windows 10 Edge Print dialog box is too big in the system.

    I certainly understand your concern and will try my best to help you.

    There is a possibility that this issue might have occurred due to incompatible or corrupt display drivers in the system.

    I would suggest you to try the following methods and check if that helps.

    Method 1:

    Run inbuilt Hardware & Device troubleshooter


    Let’s try running inbuilt Hardware and Devices troubleshooter to get the problem automatically detected and fixed. It checks for common issues and makes sure that any new device or hardware attached to your computer was installed
    correctly.


    • Press Windows + W keys on your keyboard to get the search option.

    • Type Troubleshooting and click
      Troubleshooting.

    • Now click on view all option.

    • Click on Hardware and Device and follow the prompts to run the troubleshooter.
    If the issue persists, follow method 2

    Method 2:

    Step 1: Update the Display driver.
    Please follow the steps given below to update the display driver.


    • Click Start and go to
      Run.

    • In the Run prompt, type
      devmgmt.msc
      and then click OK.

    • Device Manager will open.

    • In Device Manager
      expand Display adapters.

    • Right-click the display driver and click
      Update Driver Software.

    • Select Search Automatically for Updated Driver Software.
    Step 2: Check if there are any updates for display drivers available in Optional Updates; this might fix the issue. Refer to the following steps.


    • At the Start screen, type Windows Update.

    • Click or tap Settings on the right side of the screen, and then select Install optional updates from the left results.

    • When the Windows Update control panel opens, click on “Check for Updates” on the top left corner to receive a fresh list of updates.
    Step 3: If the issue persists, I would suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the Display driver. Please follow the steps mentioned below to uninstall the display driver.


    • Open Device Manager.

    • Expand Display adapters.

    • Right-click the display card driver and click
      Uninstall.

    • Windows will prompt you to confirm the device’s removal. Click OK to remove the driver.

    • After the un-installation is complete, reboot your computer as soon as possible.
    Computer will load the generic display drivers. Now, please go to the manufacturer’s website, download and install the compatible display card drivers for your computer and check.

    You may also refer to the following website below to download the drivers for the Graphics card.

    Windows 10 Edge Print Dialog Box Too Big

    I've recommended the OS to a few users that I support. This is a huge issue for those that have experienced it and they are going back to Windows 7 for something as simple as printing. I'm going back to the "wait til the bugs are worked out" approach.

    This is not just a graphics issue... here's a few suggestions: As DellBoy66 stated, 1) allow the option to use manufacturer's dialog box. 2) Add resizing of the box. 3) Reapproach the design of the dialog box - it's big and clunky.
