    Hi

    In addition, you can also simply press and hold the Ctrl Key and move the scroll wheel on the mouse to resize the icons.

    Hope this helps.

    Thank You for using Windows 7

    Right click on the Desktop | Personalize | Window Color. In the Item drop-down box select Icon. The size setting is to the right.

    Also, you can hold down the ctrl button, right click on an icon, when the pop-up box appears you choose 'View' and another box will appear with the option for sizing and aligning your desktop icons.

    Easiest way I found.

    I do not have a mouse,...just the touch pad.  Icons suddenly got too big.  How do I reduce them?
