If you're using the latest version (CC 2019), go into Preferences > User Interface and take at look a UI Scaling. You can scale up the size of panels, tools and even the cursor. (See screenshot below.)

Please note that the changes will not be applied until the next time you start Illustrator.

The preferences don't even look like that in Windows 7, and this does not solve the problem. Something changed from AI 2018 to 2019 and this program breaking problem is clearly their doing...

It does not look like my screenshot above, because you're not using CC 2019 (as was mentioned in my post).
