My husband's desktop (running Windows 10) downloaded and installed a major Windows update Nov. 22. After it did, his screen is huge. Icons, text, everything. I checked his resolution, icon size, text size and ease of access settings -- nothing out of place. Resolution is normal. Icon size is small. Text size is normal, all ease of access off. The screen zoom is 100%. If I system restore to before the update, it's fine. I tried to change the active hours to give myself a day to hunt down the answer today, but it updated again this morning, and the problem is back. We've restarted, powered off and did a hard restart, powered off and checked the monitor settings. It has to be a bug or a conflict with the new update, but I'm stumped. Anyone??

Uh-Oh, I just realized something. Before the update, it was on the recommended resolution of 1920x1020. After the update, the computer says the recommended resolution is 1024x768, and that's where it was. I don't think 1920x1020 was even a choice. This has got to be the issue. He has a 23" monitor.
I also have the same issue with everything on my computer and huge and almost distorted after an upgrade this morning. Help.. Microsoft. Fix your bug!!
YOU did it!!!!!!!!!
Letting mine update now. Then I'm going into settings/system/display/display adapter properties, and clicking off the toggle that says "Hide modes this monitor cannot display" and see if it will let me go back to 1920x1080.
Did it let you do that, Terri? I'm waiting for it to update now. At least mine isn't having hang-up issues with this update.
