Question

Menu are small

And the splash screen and the file menu bar at the top is small and you can't read them because they are too small. How do I make the normal size.

    GUESS WHAT? I figured out a way to fix it and I hope it can help others! As mentioned earlier the CS6 software worked great for years on my Windows 10 platform - until 3 days ago when the text automatically (without changing any computer resolutions settings or configurations) got so TINY I could hardly read it on the screen. SOLUTION: I went to the Task Manager (Ctl+Alt+Del) and then went to the STARTUP tab. I Disabled all the Adobe software such as Adobe CS5 Service Manager, Adobe CS6 Service Manager, Adobe Reader and Acrobat Manager, Adobe Updater Startup Utility and Adobe Acrobat Speed Launcher. Then I REBOOTED my computer and Dreamweaver, Illustrator, Photoshop and Fireworks text menus were all larger and more legible!!!  I HOPE THIS HELPS OTHERS! (not sure if i will need to do this everytime I restart the computer but it worked!!!

    bdayrock solution didn't work for me.

    Please help, since I got new laptop, font size in the top menu bars of Dreamweaver is extremely small. Also when I open files the font is smaller than in my old laptop. How can I enlarge all display fonts?

    I use Windows 10 and tried with enlarging the display font and resolution in Windows Settings but that didn't do anything in Dreamweaver.

    Can you post a screenshot of what you're seeing?

    I'm guessing you're on a HI RES display?

    Can you give us more details about your display and res settings?

    I don't know how to get a screen shot or how to post it. It does look like it's in hires but I don't know how to adjust the hi res. The menu file -view and so on are real small and the splash screen, where you start a new HTML or PHP is real small.

    Thanks for getting back to me.

    What you describe is a problem for HI RES display users.

    You will need to adjust your display's resolution settings downward in your OS.
