How to increase the size of the icons in the notification area (lower right corner of the XP taskbar)
For some reason when I booted up my laptop, the icons were tiny and too small for my eyes. I think it was related to the installation of TestOut LabSim software on the laptop, because I noticed that the problem after doing so.
I was not yet aware that it was possible to adjut the size fo the icons in the notification area. All the links I found affect the icons in the start menu, or quick launch menu, but not the notification area.
The notification area is now two-lines, if it used only one, but the size of the taskbar has not changed. My DPI settings are always set to 'large '. The display resolution is unchanged.
The thing where you right-click the taskbar, choose 'Properties', then click on "Start menu", then customize, then choosing "large icons" is only the start, not the notification area menu. It is also already on large icons.
In addition, the thing where you right click on the Quick Launch bar and ends by choose "large icons" affects only the Quick Launch bar, not the right notification icons.

How do I do the large icons again so I can actually see them? My eyes are not more perfect, and I would rather not be squinting when using my laptop. I think seriously increase the DPI to 150% in its current form.
Hi bhermance,
Method 1
Try the steps mentioned below and see if it helps.
one) to open display, click Start, click Control Panel, click appearance and themes, and then click display.
(b) click on the appearance tab, then Advanced.
(c) now select buttons of legend in the list of items and increase the size.
(d) click OK and apply
Check if that helps.
Method 2
If the previous step fails, then I suggest that you uninstall TestOut LabSim software of the computer and check if it helps.

How permanently increase the font size in windows applications
How permanently increase the font size in Windows applications as for example the mail application? The letters are much too small, and my eyesight is perfect! Thank you
Sign of salvation,
Welcome to the Microsoft community forum. From the description of the problem, it seems that you want to change the font size for the user interface modern app.
You can change the modern user interface text size by going to the charms > settings > change the settings of the PC > PC and peripherals > display
Also see this Microsoft article:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/make-text-screen-larger-smaller/?v=t
Windows 8.1, you can now set the DPI (Dots per Inch) scale to make text and other items, such as icons, fonts and windows, to more or less important for all display or by display screens.
Windows 8.1 DPI scale improvements are mainly focused on:
- Optimization of ergonomics and the readability of displays high-resolution
- Offering an experience uniform multi-screen systems
- Give developers optimize app specific scale based on display DPI
If you are using a resolution of 1366 x 768 display on a shelf, chances are that UI will look good 100% ppp settings. But what about when you connect the tablet to an external high resolution? In Windows 8, you can choose either 100% in order to optimize the user interface on the screen of the tablet or display up to 150% in order to optimize the user interface on the outside. You have to make compromises.
8.1 Windows takes care of this issue pressing address scaling of IPR by display . By default, Windows 8.1 will choose the optimal DPI scaling value for each display based on the value selected for the global scaling in the control panel.
You can also view the suggestion provided by Shawn on this thread.
I hope this helps. If you need help with Windows, let us know and will be happy to help you.
