It's somewhere in the context menu when you right click the desktop, or you
can hold down Ctrl and use the mousewheel.

Hi Erison

You might check to see if your DPI settings was increased

and if your Screen Resolution was decreased

Hope this helps

It sounds like the Screen Resolution was changed to a lower resoulution.
Right click the Desktop and select Personalize from the menu. On the
following screen, select Display Settings.

In the dialog box, set the Resolution to a slightly higher value. Apply/OK.
