Set text scaling

Set text scaling

- [Instructor] You can change the size of text in the Windows interface to make it easier to read. In the Start menu, you can go to Settings, to the System category, then to Display. Changing the display resolution affects the sharpness and quality of your screen, but it can make the interface smaller. The scale percentage helps to address this but it changes the size of all interface elements at the same time. So if you need to change the size of text without changing anything else, neither of these options gives you the control that you need. Instead, go to Settings, to the Accessibility category, then to Text Size. Adjust the slider to change the size of text, then click Apply. It will take some time to make the change. Text in the Windows interface is now bigger, but this does not change the size of buttons, menus, or other interface elements.
