I use "Align Icons to Grid" to line up icons on my Desktop. However, I find the resolution of the grid is too coarse. How can I reduce the icon spacing between icons for the "Align Icons to Grid" option?
View 3 RepliesCannot arrange desktop icons the way I want them.
"Align to grid" etc options turned off.
Left click & hold used to work but . . . . . .
Every time i make a restart on windows 10 the icons take all the time the same order.For example i move 5 icons to the right side of desktop,then after restart all icons go to the left in order.I have no ides what is going on and i have tried lot of stuff with no luck.
View 1 RepliesI watched on of your videos and I'd like to know how do you pesonalise the taskbar like that. I mean, I want the pinned icons to be shown like a grid and not in a list format.
View 2 RepliesWhenever I connect my laptop to the TV via hdmi cable my desktop icons are moved and auto aligned in vertical columns down the left hand side of the page (my desktop). I have to drag them back to where I want each time. It's a fairly minor nuisance, but is there any way to avoid this, I've searched but can't find a definitive answer.
(I've tried, right clicking and unchecking 'align icons to grid' but that doesn't make any difference, it still always happens).
There is a 3x3 grid on my monitor ever since upgrading to windows 10. The mouse cursor runs under the grid which makes me think it's not a feature of windows. How do I get rid of it?
View 2 RepliesI've just noticed a feature which I don't think was present on Windows 7, but is on Windows 10.When a pop-up window is opened by an application the window is not aligned with the top left corner of the screen, it is slightly padded to the right. This seems to affect both pop-ups from browsers and from other applications (i.e Tkinter python frames).
Is there a way to prevent this from happening? I have written a program that interacts with an application that creates these kinds of pop-ups and my program is expecting the windows to be about 7 pixels to the left of where they are appearing.... This can be tested by turning off your ad blocker and going to URL...
I just upgraded to Windows 10 the other day and I have noticed that all my title bars seem to be left aligned rather then center for the title bar at the top of browsers and explorer and such. I also redid my system before upgrading so unsure if this is a Firefox issue or a Windows 10 issue have asked over on their forum also in case.
But is there a way to get my title bar at the top of the screen to be back to center rather then left aligned as I just prefer the text in the middle rather then on the left where it competes with the text in the menu. Based on what I read regarding centering the Firefox title it looks like by default it should be centered reason I am thinking this is a Windows setting over riding this.
So is there a way to center the title bars of programs and browsers rather then left align the title as I find the text competes with the menu text which is annoying for me at least.
So late last night I decided to upgrade expecting everything to work. Well I was in for a surprise when the default resolution is 1024x768 and my monitor is 1920x1280. The best part when I do think I have got it fixed the highest resolution is 1600x1200. I have tried my monitors size detection and refit options with no success, my monitor is a hannas-g hl269. Its not much of a difference in resolution but its causing me motion sickness when I tried playing games.
View 2 RepliesI can access the screen in control panel to change display resolution in Windows 10 but can't adjust the resolution. It just won't let me! My display is two inches to the left and icons appear stretched vertically.
View 1 RepliesSo on my dell xps 13 that I just put windows 10 on, I'm looking for a way to have the icons rescale to the correct size when changing displays without signing out? For example, I'll have it plugged into my monitor, then unplug the laptop to use it, and when the laptop screen turn's back on everything on the desktop is supper small. A sign out and in fixes this, but that's less then ideal.
View 1 RepliesI have just recently upgraded to Windows 10 and I haven't found a way to set my resolution to 1920x1080.
View 1 RepliesSome of my programs in windows 10, specifically Steam, are incorrectly scaled, I checked all of my settings for windows automatic scaling, to no resolution.
View 1 RepliesI recently upgraded to win 10 and I'm permanently stuck at 1280 x 720 and I cant figure out why. Ive uninstalled all the old Nvidia driver and did a clean install of the win10 driver and it even says that I'm using 1920x1080 but its not, still 1280 x 720...
View 1 RepliesI've recently updated to Windows 10. At first there were no problems and it was running fine. However, when I restarted my computer I noticed that the resolution had changed from 1680x1050 to 600x800. I can change it back to 1680x1050, but every time I restart my computer it changes back to the smaller resolution. I have tried to update my graphics drivers (I have an AMD 6670) but I don't know if it worked and the problem still occurs.

While viewing a thread here, the forum went from perfect visual clarity to a washed out appearance. The most obvious example is on any given topic page where the listed threads I have viewed are a lighter shade of blue and unread ones are bold blue. Now the bold is 2-3 shades lighter and the lighter blue ones are just easily discernible but washed out looking.

I upgrade my Win7 Pro to Win10 Pro last night and lost my 3840x2160x30 setup, being reduced back to 1980x1200. I've since done a clean install and reinstalled the latest drivers for my Samsung U28D590D and My ATI Radeon HD 5770.Nothing i have done has given me back my 4K resolution.

View 1 RepliesI was working on my MIL's laptop over the weekend, and she was having problems with games on Windows 10. She's running a Yoga 2 Pro, and launching full screen games requires a resolution change. The game would launch, and be running normally, but attempting to give it focus would always drop you back into the desktop.
After doing some research, it's a remaining bug from the beta. Resolution changes causes the start menu to steal focus, which causes you to drop down into the desktop. Alt tabbing into the game repeats the cycle. The games (in this case) were not crashing, just unable to display.
I have 2 monitors plugged on my desktop PC running widows 10 pro. I'm facing a technical issue with one of them but cannot replace it for now. The problem on that monitor is that it turns off and on by itself randomly. Each time it happens, the resolution on the monitor that doesn't have this problem changes. This is very annoying of course. How to prevent this?
View 6 RepliesI recently upgraded to Windows 10 on my desktop (upgraded from Windows 7, activated and then did a clean install) and ever since I've been encountering an odd issue:
Every time I reboot the PC, the resolution changes from 1600x900 to 1024x768. This happens after both restarting and shutting down. Every time Windows boots, it resets the resolution.
My specs are as follows:
CPU - Intel Xeon X3220 (OCed to 3.2GHZ)
RAM - 8GB DDR2-800
MOBO - Gigabyte EP45-UD3R
GPU - XFX Radeon HD6870 (Using latest drivers)
OS - Windows 10 Pro
how to fix it? Once I'm logged on, I can change the resolution back fine, and games run fine too, so it's definitely detecting my card properly and using the Radeon drivers
I must say, I'm a bit disappointed with Windows 10... Under Win 7 everything worked flawlessly, whereas under 10 I get loads of these small issues that make the experience particularly frustrating. Chief among them is the fact that Windows 10 is slow as anything - a fresh install takes longer to boot than my year old Windows 7 install did, and just generally feels less responsive than 7 did.
I have a computer I upgraded to Windows 10 Pro. it was Windows 7 Ultimate. It has a 19" Acer X193W monitor with a resolution of 1440x900.
After upgrading to Windows 10 Pro last night,it won't provide that setting. I've even tried "Custom Resolutions Utility" at [URL], a utility which is supposed to provide a custom resolution, but I can't get it to work properly--it wipes out EVERYTHING and doesn't add the settings I tell it to. I can't find the driver for the monitor, nor the driver for the adapter. (By the way, why is it so hard to find these things, and why do so many pages which purport to instead bombard you with "download" links to things that are not that at all? Major "ugh!")
Is there an EASY and I mean EASY (as in it might take me 45 seconds, TOTAL) way to FORCE this computer with Windows 10 to provide a 1440x900 setting?
I recently got a new computer after my old one crashed. i installed my old 750 ti that was in the last computer and updated the drivers. I plugged it into the same 4k tv my last computer was hooked up to. However, when i try to switch to 4k resolution (3840x2160p) I am met with a black screen until it switches back to 1080p.
specs:
Windows 10
750 ti sc
i5 6400
8gb ram
1tb hdd
I have tried reinstalling drivers two times and I got no luck I'm stuck with 1600x1200 resolution but one thing worries me it seems like drivers think my card is HD8670 or 7900 series instead of R280x. How to solve this and get full hd resolution?
