I have just installed Elements and the size of the menu icons is tiny. I would like to know how to make them larger. Changing things like the screen resolution of the laptop has no effect

What operating system are you using?

Is that photoshop elements 2018 or photoshop cc 2018?

In the photoshop elements 2018 editor go to Edit>Preferences>Display & Cursors

Hi @defaultdiaelm2pucjj 🙂

 

Try this:

 

1. Using the File Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 2021

2. Look for the PhotoshopElementsEditor application and right-click on it.

3. From the contextual menu that appears, select Properties

4. Choose the Compatibility tab, and under Settings, click the Change high DPI settings button

5. In the new dialog box that appears, under High DPI scaling override, click the checkbox next to Override high DPI scaling behavior, and choose System (Enhanced) in the dropdown menu for Scaling performed by

6. Click OK twice to close the dialog boxes and start Photoshop Elements again.

 

If you want to also adjust the settings for the Elements Organizer, then you need to go through the same steps again, only this time for the PhotoshopElementsOrganizer application that is in your C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements 2021 Organizer folder.

 

Hope that helps 🙂


Well, I think that has helped a bit, not really enough but at least it is usable now. Thank you.
