WINDOWS 10 - WINDOWS NT ACCESSORIES - WORDPAD

My windows 10 "Wordpad" version is out of sync.   In my Windows 7 version, Wordpad is opened in a "normal" mode (shows a page the same size as a "Word" page layout.)   However, the Wordpad version in my Windows 10 programme shows an exaggerated large full screen page which can not be adjusted??
Hi Peter,
I am Sumit, an Independent Advisor and a 2-Year Windows Insider MVP here to help.

I don't see a difference in both of W7 and Windows 10.
Is the zoom set to 100% in the bottom right in the wordpad? If not, set it to 100% and let us know.

Hi Peter238

At the bottom right of Wordpad, can you not adjust the Zoom factor of your document view?

Go to File - Page Setup, what page size is Wordpad set to?

Please post a screenshot of what you are seeing in Wordpad, if the above is not available to you . . .
