| Icons in Taskbar and Upper left of Windows is larger then normal... I was trying to help a friend who accidentally enabled Filter Keys and in the process started the Accessibility Wizard. Part way through I canceled it and now my icons in the Taskbar and the upper left of the Windows is larger then normal. I cant seem to get them back to the Right size. Where do I change the Size of those Icons? Thanks, Scott<- |

Go to Control Panel and double click Display. In Display Properties, click on the Appearance tab. On the Appearance tab, click on the Advanced button. In Advanced Appearance, click on the arrow next to the Items box and select "Caption Buttons" from the list. Make sure it's set to 25 in the Size box. Click OK twice. You may have to log off and back on for the changes to take place. If that doesn't help, you might want to go back to the Appearance page and change to another theme. Click OK. Next, change back to the old theme and see if everything's been reset to the correct size. Good luck Nepatsfan |

| Re: Icons in Taskbar and Upper left of Windows is larger then normal... Hmmm Interesting. I thought that was it, though was not sure. Changed it and it seemed to be better but my Min, Max, Close buttons seemed smaller. I set it to 18. It was at 25 already. I got the 18 from another machine's setting. Though that was in a Terminal Session. Just checked another Laptop and its at 22. Hmmm... I'll try the Theme and see if that makes a difference Thanks, Scott<= "Nepatsfan" <nepatsfan@SBXXXIX.com> wrote in message news:uuRAVlHJHHA.3668@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > "Scott Townsend" <scooter@nospam.postalias> wrote in message > news:%23X19fiFJHHA.4760@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl >> I was trying to help a friend who accidentally enabled >> Filter Keys and in the process started the Accessibility >> Wizard.

| Re: Icons in Taskbar and Upper left of Windows is larger then normal... Changing from Green to blue and back to Green seemed to do the Trick. Thanks!
