Increase text size and make font clearer in Windows 11

 

The Windows system contains many tools that make dealing easier and better for those who suffer from poor eyesight or problems in their ability to see, or even for those who have huge screens and find it difficult when reading texts and thus it is difficult to control the device. For example, if you do not see the mouse pointer clearly, there is an option in Windows to change the size and color of the mouse pointer. Also, if you do not see the images clearly, there is a Magnifier tool that acts as a magnifying glass on any part of the screen. But if the texts are small and not easy to read, or the font is difficult to see because of the large dimensions of the screen; You can adjust Windows 11 settings and change the size of texts according to your needs, here's how.

 

You do not need to download and install additional programs on the device to enlarge the text size in Windows 10, all you have to do is open the Settings application from the Start menu or press the Win + I keys together on the keyboard, then go to the "Accessibility" section from the side menu, Then on the right side, click on "Text size" to find the Text Size slider in front of you, which allows you to control the size of the text.

 

You can drag the circle on the slider to the right to gradually enlarge the text, which should bring up a "Text size preview" that gives you an idea of what the text size will look like at that level. Generally, drag the circle until it reaches the appropriate level where the preview text becomes easy to read for you. Then click the "Apply" button to apply the changes immediately by increasing the text size in Windows. You don't need to restart the device or even log out.

 

Whether your computer has a large, high-resolution screen, or you have poor eyesight and have difficulty reading text clearly, it should now be easier to interact with Windows. Note, however, that the "Text size" option does not affect the entire Windows system, only text will be large on the title bars of windows, as well as menus, icons, and a few other items. Most Windows applications will be affected by these changes, and the text in them will be large, such as the Settings application, the File Explorer tool, even the options menus, and other programs, including those installed by the user.

 

However, in the interface of some programs, the font is still small and not clear to read, but only the title bar appears large. Even the Control Panel in Windows was not affected by the changes I made through the Text size option. As can be seen from the image: the address bar, path and search fields, and directives are large, but the content of the tools themselves is in small font.

 

Fortunately, you can also solve this problem by enlarging the text in general in every element of Windows or programs, including the icons and not just the text. To do this, go to the System section in the Settings application, then click on “Display” on the right side, after that in front of the “Scale” option, click on the menu and then choose the percentage of increasing the text size, whether it is 25%, 50%, or 75% greater than the current size. Once you make a selection from the list, the changes will take effect. You should now see the text clearly in anything displayed on the screen in Windows, including applications and programs.
