Override system DPI

Select a different DPI value to be used by the menu. The setting controls the size of the menu icons, text, and other graphical elements. The acceptable values are between 96 and 480. Use 0 to disable the override.

If you set the state to 'Locked to this value', the setting will be locked to the specified value for all users.

If you set the state to 'Locked to default', the setting will be locked to the default value for all users. The specified value is ignored.

If you set the state to 'Unlocked', the default value for the setting will be changed to the specified value. Individual users can override the setting.

Supported on: Requires Classic Shell 4.0.4 or later. Requires Internet Explorer 9 or later.
