Trouble viewing / reading Icons and Fonts on your Computer?

Learn how to change the Appearance of your Computer screen for easier reading.


If you are like me, as I get older, it gets harder to read some of my icons and the text on my computer.  Let me show you how to change the appearance of your computer to make it easier to read and work on.

First Tip:  If you just want to increase or decrease the font size inside your Browser, you are able to do this easily.  You need a mouse with a wheel.  Hold down the "Ctrl" and move the mouse wheel up or down.

Browsers this works in:  Internet Explorer, Firefox, Netscape and Opera. 

 

If you want to change the over all appearance of your PC, and make all the text on your PC larger, follow these steps.

  • Right Click on the Desktop and click on Properties.
     

  • Click on the Appearance Tab
