Resolution distortion question

I just got Windows 11 the other day on a 15.6" screen, which is a bit larger than my 14-ish" screen. I can't quite figure out a resolution, however, that will work for me. Currently, the fonts and such appear far too small than what I'm used to:

What's the best way to go about setting one that works? In fact, since the last time I started up the computer, it seems to be different. Resolution is currently set at 1920 x 1080, which says it's recommended, and I'm pretty sure it's been set at that since I've gotten it. Just need a bit of advice and what's worked for others.

Hi,

I'm Rodrigo and I'll help you.

The things can look small at a 1920x1080 resolution on a 15,6" screen. To make things bigger without messing up the resolution, change your scale settings.

Go to Settings > System > Display > Change the Scale setting.

Test the 125% and 150% values and check which one suits better for you.
