Hi there my names osher, my pc screen on windows 10 is SUPER zoomed in where I can’t see or click anything. I think I have clicked stuff randomly hoping it will change now I don’t know where I am and none of the keyboard shortcuts work. And yes I have tried going into device manager but the thing is I can’t click ANYTHING or see ANYTHING. I’m getting to the stage where I might have to get someone to look at it. Please can you possible get into my account and change it for me

thanks

    Try these in order:

    1. Turn Magnifier off:
      • Press Windows key + Esc.
    2. If Magnifier is still on, change zoom directly:
      • Zoom out: Windows key + Minus (-)
      • Zoom in: Windows key + Plus (+)
    3. If a mouse is available, Magnifier zoom can also be changed with:
      • Ctrl + Alt + mouse wheel down to zoom out
    4. If the whole desktop is still too large after Magnifier is off, change display scaling:
      • Open Start > Settings > System > Display
      • Under Scale and layout, set Change the size of text, apps, and other items to the Recommended value.
    5. Also in Display settings, check resolution:
      • Under Display resolution, choose the Recommended value.
    6. If only text is too large, on supported Windows settings pages reduce text size:
      • Press Windows key + U
      • Select Text size
      • Move the slider left, then select Apply
    7. If the screen became enlarged after a restart and display settings cannot be corrected, check the display adapter in Device Manager:
      • If the AMD display adapter is disabled, enable it and restart.
      • Updating the GPU driver can also help.
