Tip of the Week: Make Your Desktop Icons Bigger (or Smaller)

Everyone has their own preferences for their workstation, down to the size of the icons on their desktop. Let’s talk about how you can easily adjust the size of the icons on your display to your own preference.

It’s a pretty simple process:

  • Left-click on your desktop.
  • Holding the Ctrl key, scroll your mouse to make them larger and smaller.

This will adjust all of your icons simultaneously.

There is also an alternative:

  • Right-click on your desktop.
  • Select View.
  • You can then choose between Large icons, Medium icons, and Small icons.

This also helps you return the icons to the default size (Medium) after you’ve played with the scrolling option.

Be sure to check out the other great suggestions we have for you in our Tips of the Week!
