How to change the size of apps and text on the main display in Windows 10 & 11

• Click on the Start button in the bottom-left corner

• Click on the gear icon (Settings)

• When the Settings menu shows up, click on Ease of Access

• Next, click on the display located on the left
• Under the option “Make everything bigger,” you get to choose the option that suits you most

• You will see that the option set by default is 100 % or 150% (Recommended).
• Click on that and select another option that you like

The change will be made immediately and you will notice that the size of the apps and text on the main display matches the one you selected. You can always go back to defaults by choosing 100 %.
