Increase Font Size in the Bars of IE9

[jsquareg]

Is there a way to increase the font size of the Menu, Command and Favorite bars in IE9

Thank you.

You can make everything bigger ?

Thanks again ThrashZone. No, I don't want to make everything bigger -- just the bars in IE9.

Increasing the dpi will actually let you use less Zoom,
Plus Text renders so much better you'll most likely be able to use 100% Zoom instead of what you might use now 150% is pretty common for me but I also use 130% dpi,

Possibly someone will come by and know the registry path to this option,
Cheers.

Yes, but that changes the size of Icons and Text throughout the system. At least it does on the desk top.
I just want to change the Menu bar, Favorites bar and the Command bar. Nothing else.

There is an add on for Firefox known as Theme and Font Changer the will do this but I can find nothing like that for IE.

Oh well, I can live without it just like I have found I can live without Win 8 or 8.1. Neither of them is bad and both quite usable but I will stick with Win7. And that is because I am on old curmudgeon and proud of it!

Thanks again.

You can change the font size of the menu bar, but unfortunately the choices available jump from 10 to 26! It's in

Personalization> Windows color> Advanced appearance settings> Item: Menu> Font size

But, at least on my system with a custom DPI (check if yours is different), the default is 9, and after 10 it jumps to 26

I am sorry I didn't make my question clear. I want to make the test in IE's Menu Bar, Favorites Bar. Command Bar and Status Bar larger. I was not intending to make any changes to any of the Windows settings.

Thanks for a good try though.

jsquareg I understand what you are looking for. Sorry to say I have also looked for the same thing.
I have been unable to find something that works in I.E.
That is one of the main reasons I don't use I.E. often.

Thank you Layback Bear.

That is what I thought might be the case. Too bad!

I understood you, and that does change that. It does change all other menues as well of course. There is no way to just change the IE stuff though. A Guy
