microscopic toolbars on new computer

Hello, 

On my new computer, also using Windows 11, the toolbars are really really small.

I tried increasing the display magnification to the maximum (300% from the recommended 200%), which made a little difference. 

Changing the screen resolution didn't help. 

 

How can make the toolbars big enough to read?

Correct answer Bobby Henderson

Within Adobe Illustrator you can change the size of user interface items in the Preferences dialog box.

 

Also, the Windows OS affects the size of user interface items with its own settings. Go to Settings>System>Display and scroll down to Scale & Layout to check settings there.
