I've got a Surface Pro 4 and facing the same issue with extremely minuscule buttons in certain applications. Increasing the scaling does not seem to help this. The lack of support and delayed fix by microsoft is unsurprising.
Video controls are small - How to resize?

I just got a new computer and every video I've watched the video controls (play button, video timeline, expand, etc) are all very small, on every website and on different video players. The video player size is fine, just not the controls. I've tried changing the resolution, it just changes the screen size, doesn't work. IE video controls seem to ok, but Firefox is where the issue is.
Laptop is a HP Envy 14 sleekbook.

2015-12-09T03:03:29+00:00 They need to fix the program. I have a MICROSOFT Surface Book, THEIR computer. Too small to use the buttons.
Best fix...use a different application since MS doesn't really care.

2015-12-05T04:35:41+00:00 I also have this problem. Might I add, my Dell 1700 is brand new, paid $1,400 on it and made ZERO changes or software add-ons, so... yeah. ONE ANSWER I have ran across that I'm willing to accept is that the buttons that are small are actually just pictures, and because og the better resolution of newer computers, it minuscule's the buttons to stay within pixelation. No way around it if that's the case, they need to rebuild these programs instead.

2015-11-30T06:26:11+00:00 I am using Windows 10 on a newly bought ASUS laptop and am facing the same issue with the size of the video controls. Did the previous people facing this problem find any fix for it? What did you people do to get around this problem?
