Screen Scaling Causing A Blur

[FN-GM]

Hello,

 

I have a Windows 10 laptop with a 1920x1080 screen. When setting the screen scaling to either 125 or 150% is makes some of the text appear blurred.

 

Does anyone know how to fix this please? Googling doesn't have anything conclusive.

 

Thanks

Does this help?

...The problem in Windows 10:

 

When you have a widescreen, with a resolution of 1920x1080 or higher or a bit lower, in Windows Vista, 7, 8 and 8.1 you would put your DPI scaling to 125% or higher to make text and images appear larger and more easy to read.

But when you put the DPI scaling to 125% in Windows 10, you see in a lot of dialogs and windows the font gets very blurry.

It does not matter if you are using the regular or custom Windows DPI scaling functions at your 'Screen properties'. Text will get blurry on 125%.

You can test if you have this bug also if you put your DPI scaling to 125% at your 'Screen properties', then reboot Windows (or sign in again when it asks you).

Then goto 'Control panel > Administrative tools > Services'.

If you have this issue also you would see the titlebar of the Services window has a font scaled good. But the services list itself is very blurry/unsharp to read.

 

The SIMPLE fix:

 

Right-click on the shortcut to your application that has blurry fonts, then select 'Properties'. Then tab 'Compatibility'. Then enable 'Disable display scaling on high DPI settings' and hit 'Apply'. then restart your application, and you see it will look good...
