Windows 10 Desktop Icons

[john92210]

The text below Windows 10 desktop icons is in a very narrow column. Is there any way to widen the text column?

Could you post a picture of what you mean?

Here is what a typical icon looks like on the deskop when you click on it. I would like the text not to be constrained to such a narrow column. Correcting this was easy in Windows 7

I believe your only option would be to make the icon font smaller. I used procmon to see if there were any "Extra" settings regarding icons, but I did not see any. The desktop settings are stored in the registry. HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowsMetrics

Wider rather. But then you would get really large ugly icons.

I was referring to shrinking just the icon font size.

Bummer!! Changing the icon size is an unsatisfactory fix.
