    Screen Magnification


    I am using Windows 7 home premium 64 bit. Once upon a time I used to get a little square box appear at the bottom right hand corner of my screen. In this box was an arrow which I could move left or right to increase or decrease the size of the letters on my screen from say 100% and upwards.

    Now, for some unknown reason that little box has done a runner and is nowhere to be seen. I have no idea where it is hiding but if anyone can tell me where it is and how to put it back in its right place, I shall be extremely grateful

    Hi there .. Try the following Click the Start button, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Accessibility.

    Click Magnifier to open the Magnifier Settings dialog box. Adjust the level of magnification by typing a number from 1 to 9, or by selecting the arrow button to open the list of options from the drop-down menu ..

    Think this is what you are referring to ?

    You can also turn the Magnifier on by clicking > Control Panel > Appearance & Personalisation > Ease of Access Center
