Has anyone else noticed enlarged text with the new creators update for windows 10?

Nope. Only non working wireless, non working sound. Errors during boot up, no association of files. NO option to set anything but edge of ie for webpages until you reinstall existing browsers, ...

So I am trying to avoid the fail edition upgrade

Timmy Jim

My desktop icons and text in File explorer are enlarged. I can change the scaling of text in the display settings to some what correct it, but then my taskbar and icons are too small and hard to see.

@TimmyJim do you have a high DPI (>96 DPI) display?

Timmy Jim

How can I check? It's a 4k monitor if that helps

allquixotic

yep, it's high DPI, unless it's absolutely enormous

Timmy Jim

i think 27 inch

allquixotic

definitely high DPI

when you change the display scaling setting in the Settings app, you probably have to restart the computer to have all apps properly adjust to it

Timmy Jim

When I adjust that setting the icons adjust with it. I don't think I need to restart for those. It's really only the icons and text in file explorer that are larger. Chrome looks fine

allquixotic

right, but it doesn't scale properly unless you actually restart the PC

change the scaling up a bit and restart before you try anything else

Timmy Jim

I guess I'll try a restart and see. Previously I had it on 150% by default (it's what windows recommends). It still is on 150 atm

That seems to have fixed it. Guess I should have tried that first :p

Just thought it was odd how when I first started the computer it did that

@Mokubai American ones. Actually and some british ones

We have a couple of providers here that lock the phones you "get for free" with your plan.

Hennes

Sadly that also happens over here. I think they are legally required to offer to unlock them after a year

Michael Frank

Yea, I think these ones are unlocked after the payment term (normally 24 months)

Hennes

of, payment also works. After the 12/24 months they need to do it for free though

For my old phone I unlocked after 2 years and sometimes looked at a new one

Canadian Luke

In Canada, we didn't have that choice. The carrier could charge whatever they wanted, for as long as they wanted. The new law goes in to effect December 1st where it will be free

Canadian Luke
