Alternate Font Sizer

Although Windows 10 comes with a lot of great advantages for users, it also has its downsides. For example, the display is automatically scaled when you adjust the font size on the desktop. Fortunately, there are many apps designed to overcome many Windows 10 issues. One of them is Alternate Font Sizer, made to fix the display font size problem.

Following a speedy setup operation that shouldn't give you any trouble, you come face to face with a simple window, where the font configuration can be easily set.

You can increase or decrease the height of the caption, icon, menu, message, SM caption and DPI font while keeping in mind that the weight is specified automatically (according to the height).

You can check out the current DPI of the display and apply italic effect, as well as edit detailed font values, such as width, escapement, orientation, underline, strikeout, charset, output precision, clip precision, pitch and family, quality, or face name. The new font can be previewed for all modified values.

To apply the new changes, it's necessary to confirm the action (unless you disabled this option), then log off and in again. Once committed to the registry, the new values become the defaults.

This means that, if you want to return to the original Windows 10 font sizes, you have to remember them before making modifications. Luckily, this can be done with minimum effort thanks to the fact that Alternate Font Sizer is capable of saving font size configurations to file and later open them.

All aspects considered, Alternate Font Sizer offers a simple solution for changing the font size in Windows 10 without also scaling the desktop. It can be easily used by any types of users.
