Display scaling has long been an issue, and while Windows 10 has made adjustments to stop apps from becoming blurry due to improper scaling, the problem persists, particularly when using multi-monitor setups and conventional desktop applications.
Nonetheless, the operating system has a feature in the Settings app that makes it simpler to correct apps that become fuzzy without requiring you to log out. For example, while docking and undocking a device, executing a remote session, or adjusting the display settings.
This tutorial will show you how to use Windows 10 settings to resolve your computer’s scaling problems.

Fix blurry apps on Windows 10
Follow these procedures to resolve blurry apps in Windows 10’s Settings app:
Windows 10’s OpenSettings.
Select “System.”
Select “Display.”
Click the Advanced Scaling Settings option under Scale and Layout.
Turn on the Let Windows try to correct the blurry toggle switch in apps.
After you’ve finished the instructions, Windows 10 will attempt to prevent apps from appearing blurry the next time you open them without requiring you to log out and back in.
Additionally, when you reload the program, a notification will let you know that there is a way to resolve any blurry issues the system may have detected.
Only apps that are open on your primary display can use this feature. Apps on secondary monitors may still appear blurry if you have a multi-monitor configuration with different scale factors. Moreover, this might not be compatible with all programs.
Fix app scaling issues individually on Windows 10
Use these procedures to resolve scaling problems with individual apps by altering Windows 10’s global scaling settings:
Right-click the application’s.exeof file.
Select Properties.
On the Compatibility tab, click.
Click the “Change high DPI settings” button under Settings.
Instead of using the Settings option to address scaling issues for this software, check the Use this setting.
Select whether to use the scaling settings when the application launches or when logging into Windows 10.
Examine the option to override high DPI scaling behavior.
Using the drop-down box, select the desired behavior from Application, System, or System (Enhanced).
Press the “OK” button.
Press the “Apply” button.
Press the “OK” button.
Even if you have certain global scaling options set up on Windows 10, the program won’t react to them once you’ve finished the steps. Rather, the custom options you chose in the Compatibility settings will be used.
