UI issues on many applications

Could you please share what resolution you are using.

At 100% icons shouldn't go large.

Also check that your desktop view for icons is set to small. Right click clear area on desktop, click view, then size you want.


At 100% with the highest resolution supported by your driver the picture should be decent. Decent can be subjective term but if every thing is set default and you are still having issue I would be looking at drivers and or hardware.

Resolution:

At 100% icons shouldn't go large: Yes it goes to large even taskbar goes large.

Also check that your desktop view for icons is set to small. Right click clear area on desktop, click view, then size you want:

Did that many times but not worked.

Try reducing resolution.

To which resolution ? 1366 x 768 ? But its pointless if I have option for Full HD and I wont use it ?

jk22, Adjust the font size in Settings /Ease of access - this won't mess up with graphic elements, just font

Yes I know that option but I want all things work like default and no need to do any custom settings.

Your File Explorer looks normal, seems you are on an older version of Windows 10 judging by the icons which have recently changed a bit.

Try small increments in the scaling like 100% > 125%.

I have used Laptops with small screens and 1920 x 1080 and the 125% scaling is about right.

Fonts in some applications can get small and thin and don't always respond to Windows changes.

You can also go to Settings > Personalisation > Fonts > Adjust ClearType text > On > and go through the text sample procedures.

When buying one I actually got 1366 x 768 resolution against the fashion trend for high dpi screens.

If you use older applications these were not designed with high dpi screens in mind, this is true of parts of Windows as well.

Still no reply ?

Your options have all been covered with all the answers together.

With a small Laptop screen like that there are always going to be problems from Application to Application, and for people with not so good eyesight.

The only other option is an external Monitor of a larger size.
