J, This might not be the long term solution but it will save you the hassle to tick and untick the high DPI setting:-
When u need to read small text, on the keyboard press the "windows" key + "=" this will enable the zoom in feature of windows. Of course, after zoom in, the words will look pixelated but at least u can quickly glance at the info. Then, press "windows" + "-" to zoom out. Hope this is helpful, for now.
