I need help increasing the font size of my desktop icons; it is very small. I made the icon size bigger by right-clicking on the desktop and clicking the view button and large icon, but the font size within the icon is very small. When I right click then I noticed that the options font size is also very very small. Please help.

    Hello! My name is Mustafa, and I am an Independent Advisor as well as a long-time Microsoft user. I'm sorry that you are experiencing this issue, and I am hopeful that I will be able to help you find a satisfactory solution.

    The solution for this is to go to settings> system> display> scale and layout> and choose the size that is good for you. This will make everything bigger, such as icons, writings, widgets....

    If you want to increase only the text size bigger go to settings> Ease of access> display> Make text bigger> and then drag the slider to the size that you prefer.

    Please let me know if this doesn't work or if you need further assistance.

    Warm Regards,

    Mustafa

    Good morning Mustafa,

    I followed your instructions, and partially my computer is fixed, thank you. Where can I get service where someone looks at my desktop and fixes my concern? I will value their time and pay the cost. Although the font size of the desktop icons is excellent, many font sizes, such as the font of the taskbar icons, when I right-click on the computer, the font size of options is still small. Please help.

    Manoj.

    I see I am glad the solution worked.

    It is possible for you to restore your windows version to a previous version but not after 4 week period. I also don't know about what your son did, so it would be better to ask him in more detail about what he has done to get a better understanding so that I can find a solution for it. Restoring the windows version to a previous version will not reset the changes that your son did.

    Good morning Mustafa,

    Thank you for providing me with the solution, It did work. I was clicking so many places, so now my computer is acting weird. Please help me learn how to restore my computer to an early date so that my computer will work like before. My computer was working correctly just 2 weeks ago; I think my son clicked somewhere to make this change. Any guidance to restore my computer to 4 weeks early date. I tried but was not able to do so. I appreciate your help.

    Manoj
