MICROSOFT MONEY PLUS HELP

Hello,
With Microsoft Money Plus Home & Business, there is generally no built-in setting inside the program to change the interface font size or recolor its screens. The practical workaround is to change Windows display/accessibility settings, which will also affect Money. Microsoft guidance for this kind of legacy app points users to Windows Text size / Scale rather than an in-app Money setting.

What to do​

1) Make the text bigger​

1. Open Start > Settings > Accessibility > Text size.
2. Move the slider to the right.
3. Click Apply.

This increases text size in Windows menus and many older applications.

2) Make the whole program bigger​

If text is still too small:

1. Open Start > Settings > System > Display.
2. Under Scale, change it from 100% to 125% or 150%.
3. Open Money again and test.

This enlarges text, buttons, and interface elements system-wide.

3) Improve colors/contrast​

If the problem is not only size but also readability:

1. Open Start > Settings > Accessibility > Contrast themes.
2. Choose a theme.
3. Click Apply.

Windows also supports Color filters if contrast themes are too strong.

4) Use Magnifier for quick zoom​

If you only need occasional enlargement:

1. Press Windows + Plus (+) to open Magnifier.
2. Press Windows + Esc to close it.

Important note​

Because Microsoft Money Plus is an old program, increasing Windows scaling can sometimes make it look a little blurry or oversized on modern high-DPI displays.

Best settings to try first​

I suggest this order:

1. Text size: increase slightly.
2. If still too small, set Scale to 125%.
3. If readability is still poor, try a Contrast theme.
