Good evening from Germany (instead of my usual Japan ...) Thank you. That personalize trick "works" (barely), but I am afraid I am too old to work a whole day long with stuff displayed on the screen so small, that I need a microscope to read it. There are only two options I can see: 100% and 125%. The latter one I chose upon setting the PC up (bought extra for this trip) and is the minimum I need to read anything on the screen. 100% is not really an "option". And even with the 100% option the lowest items in the dialog box are only half visible. The other half is still hidden behind the lower task bar. Is this really the only way to get to dialog boxes and menus? (I suspect, there are a lot of other similar boxes I have not yet tried/used) that too disappear beneath the horizon!)
