Hello.
I came in this morning to find an elf has fiddled with my classroom computer, and now everything on the screen is huge. Can someone help me fathom my way around the Korean in order to make it all normal size again? I'd be in your eternal debt, of course.
Merci,
Sineface |

Ugh, that would be the resolution *sighs*
Right click the desktop > Properties (on the very bottom: 속성) > Settings (설정)
Drag the slider over to the right, the higher the better. Find where you had it before.
Also, some Korean laptops allow you to press Fn + Shift + Right/Left Arrow to change the resolution.

Didn't somebody else have the same problem like 3 hours ago? What an odd coinky-dink |

Thank you very much, this drastically improved matters. |

I think another fix is to hit ctrl with your left hand and scroll your mouse wheel with the right. That's gotten me more than once by accident... |

I never knew that one before. It's messing with my head. Is it text size? |

I think this solution is only for text size (and maybe image size) within browsers. The problem the OP had was system-wide I think. |

I just got a new laptop at work and everytime I hit this one key the resolution changes and messes up the computer for a few seconds. That's where the bitter comes from  |
