How can I make the ui larger?

Hi there,

 

Anyone know how to make the tools buttons menu on the left part of Photoshop desktop larger? 

I'm using a 34" widescreen and the tools are really small.

 

I've tried going into photoshop preferences > ui scaling > 200%. Didn't work. 

Scale ui to text. Didn't work. 

Properties of the Photoshop application > Compatibility > Change high DPI settings > Override high DPI scaling behaviour (ticked) > System (Enhanced). Didn't work. 

Properties of the Photoshop application > Compatibility > Change settings for all users > Change high DPI settings > Override high DPI scaling behaviour > System Enhanced. Didn't work. 


All other articles / help guides, are from pre 2019 and I don't hold much hope for them. 

Thanks

The Photoshop UI scales according to the Windows scaling factor. You're not supposed to do anything in Photoshop
