What about 1080p Displays

Adobe is pushing updates and don't get me wrong, the updates are great. But along with that, the UI issue still persists. My Alienware 15r2 Laptop just recieved the Adobe 2019 updates. And what do I discover? Big as hell UI in both photoshop and illustrator. In their own settings, the UI is set to small as it was before. But NOW, to make it usable, i have to reduce my windows scaling. But why? Doing so reduces everything else in windows to unreadable proportions. I don't want that!

I do not have a 4K monitor lying around. I need to work on this laptop. PLEASE add a defauly app specific UI scaling option. I cannot work this way. It's absurd that people with 4K/retina displays are getting all the attention. Please fix. It's so much less usable how it is right now.

This indicates you have had issues before. If you did, and used any of the numerous workarounds floating around - you must undo all that first. The way this works now relies on all-standard settings in the OS and application.

Have you tried the other scaling related settings like

Edit>Preferences>Interface>Scale UI to Font

or

Edit>Preferences>Workspace>Align UI according to OS settings

Also you might need to adjust some of the os settings after you right click on the photoshop cc 2019 shortcut, Properties>Compatibility>Change High DPI Settings

Yes I have tried everything available. Only thing that solves issue is reducing windows scaling. Which just ruines every other thing.
Even contacted a chat assistant from adobe and he did the same thing and told me this is the only workaround to this. :/

I guess adobe didn't do anything to address the issue and still the same as explained here:

Photoshop CC 19.1: UI doubled in size (Win 10) | Photoshop Family Customer Community

The issue is that some users want to scale the system ui but leave photoshop at the smaller 100% size.

Users could do that until photoshop cc2018 and now photoshop scales to whatever scaling is set on the system and

there is apparently no way to override this.
