Hi.

I am a person with a visual impairment and just recent;y got a new laptop. Currently setting it up but despite all my best efforts I can't seem to get the system font size of things like Control Panel or the Properties windows of files larger. I'm also missing the advanced scaling of font sizes in the settings which I know would help straight away so don't understand why you would remove it. I've been able to Winaero Tweeker to change menu and other font sizes but I don't know if there's a way to do what I want with the Properties window font through that program. If anyone knows of another way or something Registry Editor wise I could please let me know.

    Hi.  Thanks for the reply. I've try most of the suggested ways to do it but not worked. It's just changing the font size rather than scaling or zoom.
