Icon size issues

Greetings,

 

I've been using Windows 7 for a while, and I STILL can't bloody find half of the things I usually do.  Gets damn frustrating. Current annoyance is actually kind of important because I have some vision difficulty and it's making thing bloody awful. 

 

All of a sudden last night, for no reason I can determine, the icon size on the desktop shrunk to tinee-tiny and I can't see the image at all.  The icon label is smaller too, but I can actually read it if I squint like hell.

 

I've looked everywhere and can NOT find out how to increase or decrease the space an icon is assigned. And no, I'm not talking about the spacing between icons, that I know how to do and it's unchanged. The actual size assigned to the whole icon needs to be bumped up quite a bit.

 

I just hate it when this happens and I get sick of Microsoft doing this sort of thing.

 

Thanks.

Got to say it ....

 

 

DUH!

 

Thanks.  Much obliged.  And I think I'm going to stick around since there seems to be a lot of both patience and cooth.

 

 

Maybe somebody can explain where the hell the term cooth came from.

If you have a mouse with a scroll wheel, simply hold down the "control" key and scroll up for larger icons, down for smaller icons. Win7!:meow: <3

I don't usually post with something like this but TIM. You come in a variety of favors for sure per that link. You are the best. funny, I think I will leave it there. One would never think you could take a name and start at "0", finish at "360" and have stops everywhere inbetween. Best I can sum up your urban name is. Nevermind I will go by what I know of you and that is being a great skinner and very nice person. Actually #1 may not be bad. :rofl: :rofl:
