You should also have a RESTORE CD/DVD or USB stick made for the tool you use in case you can't boot back into Windows. I use Acronis True Image to automate WEEKLY backups of C-drive. Still works though.ģ) Backup IMAGE of C-drive. Note that the 'Documents' folder will backup but there are apparently hidden files that will not copy thus always result in errors.

Windows will then also make Restore Points before some tasks too.Ģ) Use a tool like SyncbackSE Free to automate a backup of any critical folder you have to make DAILY backups. I also recommend you do the following related to backups:ġ) Setup SYSTEM RESTORE, if not done already, then make manual Restore Points before you do anything critical. Does anyone have any suggestions I can try before I give up, and wipe and reinstall? This is just such a weird problem that I'm having trouble searching if anyone has encountered something similar. Unfortunately the Windows Update rollback period has expired so I can't revert to the previous build I had. Computer is a Lenovo X1 Extreme laptop (I searched for any Lenovo options to change font and icon size, and wasn't able to find any). Manually changing the icon size in file explorer to something different and back doesn't fix it. But the font for the article and forum posts remains the same as before.) (The headline fonts on the homepage of Toms Hardware became bigger. It even effects the default fonts in Chrome - they're bigger on some web pages, original size on others. Some places icons are bigger, some places they're the same size. Some places fonts are bigger than before, some places they're the same size as before. It's like this throughout my system, seemingly at random. But I tested it and it behaves the same as the pic.)

(Pic is of a different PDF file because I just thought of testing the same file right now. But if I drag the exact same file inside File Explorer (right side of pic), the icon to indicate I'm dragging a file is a large size icon. That icon remains the same size as the original icon. If I drag a PDF file from the desktop (the PDF on the left in pic), the cursor turns into an icon to indicate I'm dragging a file. In Chrome, the font sizes are the same as before in the tab name and URL bars, but the font in the downloaded files list at the bottom is about 2 points bigger now. A right-click pop-up in another program will have a font size that's twice as big. A right-click pop-up menu in one program will have the same font size as the system. The sizes of fonts and icons are now inconsistent throughout Windows. This problem began when Windows 10 auto-updated to build 1809 17763.253
