Workspace display/font/icon size on new computer is SO SMALL I can barely read

Hi! When I downloaded my Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 to my new computer, a Dell XPS 13, the display size is incredibly small.

In "Edit" mode, the display is so tiny that I can hardly read the headers or see the icons. Is there a way to magnify the entire display? This was never a problem on my old computer, which did have a larger screen, but I don't think that should matter. It doesn't matter with any of my other programs - the font size/icons are still the same size they were before on old laptop.

Thank you!

As a matter of fact, you can't expect a very old software like Elements 9 to support today's high resolution displays which did not exist at that time. It's only from version 13.1 that a solution has been found to double the size of the fonts (we are at Elements 15 today).

Furthermore, if your display is similar to the one in the above discussion, you'll have the same problems as the poster.
