Are Your Icons Too Small?

When you boot up your computer and look for the files you need, do you find yourself squinting to see the icons and read the names?

Did you know you can adjust the size of the icons on your desktop? It’s easy!

First, right click on a blank space on your desktop. On the pop-up menu, hover or click where it says ‘view.’ Next you’ll see a sub-menu that gives you options for icon size. Click through small, medium, and large icons to see how it will appear on your screen. Choose the size that’s best for you!

After you right-click on your desktop, hover over ‘view’ which will open the window to the right, allowing you to select icon size.

If you select a size you don’t like, just right click your desktop again and choose a new size!

This is an example of small icons. This might be too small for your needs.
Here is a screenshot of ‘large’ sized icons.
