It is well known that Microsoft removed a lot of features of Windows 7 in Windows 8 and Windows 10 (read more about it in our article about which features have been removed from Windows 7), and one of them is Advanced Appearance settings dialog. This dialog allowed you to perform various appearance customizations, like changing colors and windows metrics. In Windows 8, 8.1 and Windows 10 all that’s left are a few settings of the text size.

But we can’t guarantee that this will stay like that, because Windows 10 is work in progress and the final release of the operating system always bring some changes. However, changing only the text size is definitely better choice than changing the entire DPI, because changing DPI often causes some scaling issues.

How do I change the font size on Windows 10?

To increase the size of various texts of your system, do the following :

  • Right click on the Desktop and go to Display Settings
  • Under Display section, go to Advanced display settings

  • You can also set fonts to bold, by checking Bold check box
  • Click Apply and close all Display settings window.
