How to increase the UI size of the start menu?
How to increase the UI size of the start menu?
It is too small and almost not visible to my eyes. I have to put strain on it to use it. Plus cannot put recent and shortcuts which I use directly.
What OS are you on? Under Windows 8+ it's sizing is supposed to follow system DPI (screen scaling).
Regarding the combined use of recent list and shortcuts - yes, these two cannot be combined together. You may enable the recent mode, and then use the Pin button to lock the ones you need most often at the top.

Thanks for responding. I am using Windows 10.
All right, thanks for the info. Actually let me clarify something before I go and install the full development environment on Win 10 from scratch because I do not have it anymore (windows auto-update :) ).
When you say that it's too small - is it:
- You can change the DPI* scaling so that the font size inside all apps in Windows is made bigger successfully — but Power8 is not affected and remains with small text and buttons, or
- Power8 scales the same way as the text in your system with changes to the DPI scaling — but relative to everything else, it still remains too small for your eyes?
Regardless of the option chosen, to understand you better, could you please also share your screen size and DPI setting? If I make a change, this will help to see if there is any meaningful (to you) improvement.
* By DPI scaling I mean [Settings] - [Display Settings] - [Scale: XYZ%] configuration in Windows
