Is there a way to increase the size of aka msconfig window System Configuration?

In windows 95 and 98, it was easy to increase the size of the System Configuration window, and there even a beautiful button "expand".

It was possible to use the Win9X msconfig in XP, but it doesn't seem to work in Vista Home premium 64. Is it possible to increase the size of the window? Can I change a setting of registry or something in the .exe itself?

I'm bored of ResEdit on old Macs.

Hello

N ° for some reason, the size of the window of the utility was locked in Vista and Win7.

  • Is there a way to increase the size of the 30 GB C; Partition by using the Go 657 668 score Go free?

    I tried without success again.

    I can reduce the 675 GB and create a new partition. I see just to understand how to develop the 30 GB C; Partition it doesn't show the Option expand.

    I tried to change the default values and did not like the results.

    For me now, it would be more logical to extend the 30 GB.

    It's free and very easy to use / no calculator is needed.

  • Is there a way to increase the text size in Windows 8 applications?

    Is there a way to increase the text size in Windows 8 applications?

    I find the way to text size too small in most news reader applications.  Looks like you should be able to increase or decrease the text size the same thing you do in a browser using CTRL + or CTRL-, or your mouse wheel.

    You can increase the size of the text on the desktop, but it doesn't have any effect on the subway, or whatever you call it today.

    Probably, there should be a setting to increase the size of the text under settings of PC!

    IMO, I would probably find a lot of people out there wouldn't buy a W8 Tablet since the text is to small to read!  This has fixed as soon as POSSIBLE!

    Edit: I noticed that a lot of Apps is updated to help with this problem.  Unfortunately not on the main screen of App, if you select an item to read the improvement will become visible or selectable.

    Hello

    On the start screen simply type the word "police" and select the filter settings on the right.  You should see an option 'Make text and other items more or less '.  Click on that and adjust the text or at the desired size.

    -Curt

    These instructions don't change the DPI of the screen ratio when it is in the classic user of Windows interface. The new interface Windows username however does not change when this setting is changed (which, in itself, is rather unfortunate).

    The only way to change the font size of Windows apps Store is as follows:

    1. click on the Start button to get the new user of Windows interface

    2 start typing 'police' (without the quotes)

    3. click on "settings".

    4. click on "enlarge everything on your screen; This opens the settings of PC (which is different from the classic Configuration screen)

    5. set "Enlarge everything on your screen" on it.

    Personally, I still find it too small for a lot of apps, but it's a small improvement on the default settings.

    Hi yodonna,

    Adobe Reader does not reduce the size of a PDF file, such as Acrobat. But, you can download this file to your Acrobat.com account and create an anonymous link using Adobe send. Then you can send this link by e-mail. You can access Adobe send to https://cloud.acrobat.com/send. Create an anonymous link function does not require that you have an Adobe membership send.

    You should be able to reduce the size of the PDF file by changing export settings. In the export settings you can flatten transparency (PDF 1.3 can produce a smaller file), convert CMYK to RGB (output > color Conversion), lower quality of resolution and compression (Compression tab).

  • Is there a way to change the video settings before reinstalling windows?

    I have a screan broken on my laptop, but due to a problem with the BITS and other services associated with windows update.  Is it possible to put BACKS to send videos to my S-Video output and keep it this way when performing the clean install?

    Hello

    Are you able to nothing appears on the screen?

    When you perform a clean install, all your files, settings, and programs will be erased.  You cannot send video files to the S video output via a command prompt. You can
    try to copy the files and send them to an external hard drive using the command prompt.

    Hi Kazim,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

    In addition, I really appreciate your efforts by providing descriptive information on the issue. However, I would like to know some more information to refine the question and provide you with better assistance.

    1. You did it any significant hardware or change software on the computer before this problem?
    2. The problem is specific to the built-in weather app?
    3. Do you use a proxy connection to connect to the internet?
    4. You have security software installed on your computer?

    The question may arise if there is a corruption in the specific application, due to internet connection proxy, date and time incorrect or due to one-third of the anti-virus firewall is blocking the connection. Therefore, in order to diagnose and resolve the issue, I suggest you to try the following steps and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Step 1:

    Please go to the link below, download the file and run it.

    Run applications troubleshooting

    Download and run the troubleshooter modern UI App.

    If the problem persists, try the following method.

    Method 2:

    I suggest you try the steps mentioned below and see if it works for you.

    Step 1:

    Ensure that User Account Control (UAC) is enabled. Press the Windows key and from the splash screen, type "UAC" and on the right, select settings.

    2. Then click on change time date, and then click change time zone.
    3. Select your time zone and check automatically adjust the clock for the time, then press OK.
    4. Then press on apply and OK.

    Method 3:

    If you got in third-party antivirus installed on your computer, I suggest you temporarilydisable it. The third of the anti-virus firewall sometimes became a major cause of the issue.

    If the problem does not occur after you turn off the anti-virus, try reinstalling the anti-virus.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attack.

    Hope this information is useful. If the problem still persists, please post back for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

  • Is there a way to reduce the size in pixels of several pictures in a slide show?

    I have a Windows 7 computer and use Photoshop Elements 9 and first Elements 9.  I just finished a slide show containing approximately 360 pictures, much or who exceeds the maximum size of 1000 x 750 pixels.  Is it possible that I can easily reduce the pixel size of each photo?  If the upgrade to the latest versions of Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements could help me accomplish this I'd be willing to do.  Thank you very much in advance for any advice or suggestions.

    You can batch process your images to resize them in the editor using the menu:

    File > process several files

    Place your photos selected in a separate folder, and then choose a different destination folder; in order not to overwrite the originals.

  • Best way to increase the size

    Hello

    I had a menu of 3 times 8 1/2 x 11 (page 1 of 3 columns) ID CS4 INDD.  The individual, I was told to try to see what it looks like on a tabloid (11 x 17?).

    What is the best way to bring in each of the three 8 1/2 x 11 INDD columns in columns INDD 11 x 17?

    Thank you

    Bob

    Right. Or change the spacing between the menu items, or both. Or add a few illustrations...

    The menus are one of the biggest pain in the tuchus that exists, in my opinion, and you have to do a lot of work to make them good. Dimensions of change and you need to do a lot more work to make them well look again. Wait until the head desides to add a new entry or a dessert.
