Small text size in some boxes

[Kjetilja]

Hello
I have a problem with the text in some boxes being to small to read (see picture) I have searched the internet for a solution without any luck. The text that is small is the one in the box the box that appear if you for example right-click an icon on the desktop av select properties. Everything else is normal

Hi Kjetilja, Welcome to Windows Seven Forums.

Have you tried seeing if you can drag the sides of that windows apart. Put the mouse pointer on the edge & if you see a little double ended arrow, left click & drag it sideways. The double ended arrow looks like this <->.

Hello Kjetilja.

I'm not an expert, but I can tell you some ideas

Go - Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Personalization or right click in your desktop and click -Personalization.
Then click Windows color (down in the page) and in the next window click -Advanced appearance settings.
In the next window you can set fonts, colors and size.
It is not so easy to arrange everything well, but if you have time to play with it you can make your system very beautiful.
I'd start for your problem from tooltip or messages or maybe menu. Give a biggest size for your special font and try first with normal fonts
like New Roman or Tahoma (I mean not an unusal font)
Don't forget to click -Apply & o.k and then -Save changes.

(When you click apply you can see the changes already so you can try different sizes)

You could try also from -Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Display and then change the size but for all the fonts in your system,
so maybe this is not your case.

Good luck
