  • font size change the desktop icons

    Suddenly, my desktop icons have the image or the text on them reduced to be very small. The background is always the same size, but the stuff on the icon are almost invisible

    Right-click on the icon START, and then select Properties. Click the Customize button. Scroll down to almost the bottom. Put a check mark in the use of large icons.

    Was she?
    Second options is to right-click on the desktop and select Personalize. Click on display. By default Windows is the smallest value, but you may have this set of medium-sized or large and an update reset default.
    Hope that helps

  • How can I increase the size of the text in applications without changing the size of the desktop icons?

    I have my desktop icons attached to the size I want, but when I open applications as e-mail text is tiny.  How can I change the size of the text by default without changing the size of the icons?

    Hold down the ctrl key and the mouse wheel. This should change the font size in some applications. Some applications also have their own settings of police out of their menus in things like or etc (for example). This will vary by app.

    For WLMail it appears this and this should offer some control on WLMail fonts used, but only the 2nd seems to work OK. This application there is a bug? and certainly it does not work for me.

  • Default profile of MEU - size of the desktop icon

    We try to stay away from a standard domain profile and allow the EMU to change the environment by using the standard profile by default on Windows 7. So far, I was able to capture things like the taskbar, Windows Explorer, some IE and the start menu. However, I can't enter the size of the icon on the desktop where medium to small. Someone been able to achieve this? I have looked everywhere for the registry key, but a google search only led me to keys that must have with previous editions of windows. Any help on this would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    VMware User Environment Manager provides a lot of build - in templates to capture all these parameters.

    I think that the model "DPI settings" will enter the size of the icons, just give it a try.

    To add this template, start the VMware EMU management console.

    Click "create a Config file" choose 'Common Windows setting' and select the model "DPI settings.

    I would like to know if it works.

  • How can I change the size of the desktop icons

    PC HP TouchSmart 520

    Windows 7 64 bit

    I can't change the size of the icons by right-clicking on the desktop.  There is no 'view' to change.  I have four items that appear; Graffiti, background, settings and Office Windows that changes the appearance of the office and did not have the carousel.

    It sounds like what you have on your screen is HP Magic Canvas and not Windows Desktop.

    Then, right click and select "Desktop Windows" to return to the real desktop. Then, if you want you can right click again and resize stuff.

  • Size of the desktop icon changes to large suite reboot - Windows 7

    Hi all

    I'm having this problem for a few months. The size of the icons on the desktop may be set to small. I had a setting in CUSTOMIZE > SHOW for children, but it not reduced the size of the icon on the desktop. Also, if I change the size of the icon on the desktop by ctrl + mouse wheel it comes down to grand after reboot.
    Please help me solve this annoying problem. I tried to install the latest drivers as well but still the problem persists.
    Thank you

    Change the screen resolution

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

    See you soon.

    steps to re - turn on the grid.

    If you want to increase or decrease the size of the icons on the desktop, click anywhere on the desktop and use the mouse wheel until you get
    the desired size.
