Text too small in some parts of Windows

Hello! I have recently got an 14 inch Asus laptop. I found the text too small for my vision, so I modified some settings to make it bigger. The problem is it does not increase in all parts of Windows. I attach photos with my settings (sorry for the foreign language, hope you can assume the meaning) and a photo with the parts where text is still small. Is there any way I can fix this?

Thanks for reaching out! My name is, Zadee. I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you. I'll be glad to help you today.

Ok, so I tested this on my system. True, text size does not change or affect the Control Panel font size for some reason. This might be a bug.

I found a workaround though, this might also work for you, you can go to your Display Settings > If your scale is 100%, make it 120%. This will make everything bigger on your computer including control panel texts. Now go back to Text Size setting and then just put it in the smallest size to make the text size in the settings look smaller without affecting the control panel text size.

Hope that helps.

Best Regards,

Thank you for your answer. This helps to an extent, though I can't increase the scale too much because it makes desktop icons and other things giant 😅 If there's no other option, i'll have to make this compromise.

I see no other option at the moment for this. I tried my other win 11 computer and I got the same results. It has to be something in 11. You can send MS Engineers feedback though through the feedback hub about this potential bug. But it going to maybe take a couple of updates before this gets corrected.
