Appreciate some advice please, 2 items below:

[scorecard]

1. I click on the Chrome 3 dots, drop downs appear but the font is tiny. How can I increase the size of the font?

 

2. In a string across the bottom of my screen numerous icons etc. But each 'icon image' is tiny, how can I increase the size?

 

Using Windows 11.

 

I've searches for help but all the 'help' lists mention items / factors etc., that I can't find.

 

All advice much appreciated, thanks.

>> 3 Dots on right hand side - Drop Down appears: Select <Settings>.

>> Adjust Zoom... or

>> On left side: Select <Appearance>   >>  <Font Size>

 

2. In a string across the bottom of my screen numerous icons etc. But each 'icon image' is tiny, how can I increase the size?

 

This maybe improved by adjusting the Zoom - as per above instructions....

If the above doesn't work (I don't think it will) try Settings, System, Display, Scale and set it to 125% (Recommended).

 

If it shows that already something may be corrupted so change it to something else then change it back.

 

Check Display Resolution when you're in there too.

Here’s how you can fix both issues — increasing font size in Chrome menus and making taskbar icons larger:

 

1. Chrome Menu Font Size Is Too Small

 

If the font in Chrome’s menus (from the three dots) is too small, it’s likely due to your system’s display scaling settings rather than a Chrome-only setting.

 

 

Right-click on your desktop → choose Display settings.

Scroll to “Scale and layout”.

Change the Scale to something higher (e.g., from 100% to 125% or 150%).

This will increase font and UI sizes system-wide, including in Chrome menus.

 

Note: You may need to log out and back in or restart to see full changes in all apps.

 

2. Icons at Bottom (Dock or Taskbar) Are Too Small

 

 

Right-click the Taskbar → Choose Taskbar settings.

Scroll to “Taskbar behaviors” → check “Use small taskbar buttons” is OFF.

Or, change Display scaling (as above) for broader UI size changes.
