Disabling ClearType doesn't work everywhere!!!

I want to disable completely ClearType, but I noticed e.g. in control panel windows still uses anti-aliasing for smoothing text.

While e.g. on desktop, or in browser there is no aa:

I read it is some bug. Any way how to fix this and disable ClearType for everything?

I disabled it under "Adjust ClearType text", box is unchecked and also "smooth edges of screen fonts" is unchecked in "Visual Effects" setting!

Thanks for help.

Hello, Graphics settings such as AA can be managed system wide in control panel of your GPU.
ex. NVIDIA control panel let's you override setting specified per program.


From what I know these settings apply only to Windows OS, not to programs.

Your first screenshot is OS, and second screenshot is program (browser)

It is probably Windows issue... It was on application controlled by default, but I turned aa off to be sure. Even after restart, it still uses ClearType!!!

Yeah but I said: that "ClearType" is on in control panel, not the browser! It off for other programs too I see, but not the Windows! Except for some programs it is still on! So it works randomly for some things and for some it doesn't!

Have you also logged off, and back on, or rebooted after disabling it?

Just rebooted. But now also tried to log off and back on, didn't change!
