    To adjust your display settings, (Start Menu > Settings > System), then look for “Change the size of text, apps, and other items” and adjust it for your monitor. Typically, it's best to choose the one that's marked as recommended). OR To adjust the size of text, apps, and other items in Windows, go to Settings > Accessibility > Text size and use the slider to make text larger, or go to Settings > System > Display and adjust the "Scale" option to make everything larger. 

    I hope this helps! If this was useful, please hit 'Yes' or 'Like'! Thanks! 😊

    With modern versions of Windows what you want to to Scale the display, try 125%, then 150%, etc until it looks right. If you use Accessibility then many apps won't look right…

    Start by adjusting the Display Scaling settings in Windows. Right-click on your desktop and select Display settings. Under Scale and layout, increase the scaling percentage to 125% or 150% to make text and icons larger. This change should immediately improve readability across most applications.

    Navigate to the same Display settings menu and select 1920 x 1080, which is the native resolution for the CB272 monitor.

    Finally, adjust zoom settings within specific applications. In Outlook, Excel, or Adobe, look for a "Zoom" or "View" option in the menu bar to increase the text size.
