Hello,

I am interested to know the registry value which holds the value when the slider is moved.

The HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\LogPixels i checked but the value is not getting changed when the slider is moved.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\Win8DpiScaling value i have set to 1

It will be great if someone could help me out in getting the registry Name

Hi and thanks for reaching out. My name is William. I'm a Windows technical expert. I'll be happy to help you out today.

This information is reflected in a DWORD named TextScaleFactor in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Accessibility

By the way, for purposes of forum archive, the answer comes from usage of Process Monitor. There is saying amongst IT professionals: "When in doubt, Process Monitor." In this case, just set a filter for RegSetValue, make the change, examine the output for process SystemSettingsBroker.exe
