Windows 10: Zoom In or Out of Webpages in Microsoft Edge

How to: Zoom In or Out of Webpages in Microsoft Edge

How to Zoom In or Out on Webpage in Microsoft Edge in Windows 10


Information Microsoft Edge is a new web browser that is available across the Windows 10 device family. It is designed for Windows 10 to be faster, safer, and compatible with the modern Web.

Microsoft Edge Zoom lets you enlarge or reduce the view of a webpage. Unlike changing font size, zoom enlarges or reduces everything on the page, including text and images. You can zoom from 10% to 1000%. The default zoom level is 100%.

Starting with Windows 10 build 15007, you can now zoom into a webpage regardless of zoom settings defined by the website, matching other mobile browsers. Pages are now zoomable to at least 500%. Because of this, text is no longer automatically scaled in Microsoft Edge when you’ve enabled the Ease of Access option to increase the text size, since you can zoom in on the text to reach a size that matches your own comfort level. This addresses feedback that Ease of Access zoom settings made web pages render incorrectly.

This tutorial will show different ways to zoom in or out on a webpage in Microsoft Edge for your account in Windows 10.



Note The zoom level for Microsoft Edge is stored in the registry as the ZoomFactor DWORD in the registry location below.

Microsoft Edge Zoom


Hold down CTRL and vary the wheel of an external mouse in my case and you can get to 120% because I just did. I assume if you have a TouchPad that you could hold down CTRL and use your Touchpad Zoom gesture feature. What you change to will register in the Edge Zoom Settings.

Zooming issues in Microsoft EDGE

Hi Viacheslav,

One of the possible reasons why you are experiencing issues with Microsoft Edge is due to a User Profile component corruption. For us to address this concern, we suggest creating
a Test User Profile. Using the Test User Profile, check if you will have the same issue with zooming in Microsoft Edge.
This is for us to test if the issue is isolated with one User Profile or with multiple accounts.

To create a Test User Profile, follow these steps:

• Using Search, type Settings then hit the
  Enter key.
• In Settings window, select Accounts.
• Select Family & other people.
• Select Add someone else to this PC.
• Name the User Profile as TEST.
• Assign a password for TEST user, then select Next.
  
• Sign in TEST user.

If you'll need further assistance, don't hesitate to reply on this thread.
