Windows 10 screen resolution too large
The screen resolution of a Windows 10 computer is characterized by the amount of pixels displayed both horizontally and vertically. In some cases, display problems may occur, such as if you want to connect an external monitor.
These are problems related to the incorrect configuration of the system, which leads to too large or otherwise too small writing, undefined images, and a blurred and annoying display effect for the eyes.
To overcome the problem of the Windows 10 screen resolution being too large, you can change the settings to enlarge or reduce the icons and text, so as to display them in the best size that best suits your needs.
