Question

Everything's huge suddenly

Apr 10, 2017 6:13AM PDT

Was there a recent update that made everything huge or something like that?

Don't know why and I haven't changed anything, but everything is extremely huge suddenly. The scroll bar, pop-up text, the start menu, almost everything's huge. The 'save as' pop-up almost covers the entire desktop now and some symbols in the task bar are kinda broken. Also some text (e.g. in Paint) is kinda blurry now.

Haven't changed the scaling option in display settings, it's still on 100% only and I haven't changed anything else, resolution's the same as well. So, what can I do?

What happens if you change the resolution to some other value and then back again to what it should be?
