Hi

I'm having a few problems finding settings because of the 3440 by 1440 resolution on my new monitor.

There was always a place to change the size of fonts used by Windows in it's applications. I can't find that.
If I have to I can use the slider to make everything larger but that makes some windows look fuzzy just as it always has if you enlarge things more then 20% or so.

There should be an application or a action in Windows that takes the resolution of your display into consideration when it decides how to display things.
A lot of things get really small on a high resolution monitor.

Anyone know of a ways to make the type in File Manager larger?

Solution
  • Press [Windows key + i]
  • Click on System
  • Display tab
  • "Change the size of text, apps and other items"
I have mine set to 150% since I'm on a 4K screen. Unfortunately not everything scales really well such as certain games

Hi
I'm using the Display Port.
I see there is a Nvidia Driver Update.
And I'll check LG to see about monitor drives.
Thanks for the response.
Mike
