Press the front button of the pairing on the side of the mouse. This should
toggle magnifier on and off..

Hi Msiz,

In addition to Mike's post, this tutorial may help you turn off
Magnifier.

Hope this helps,

Hello Msiz,

Are you sure that you haven't changed the DPI size to a larger size
instead? This will make everything on your screen look larger as well.
You might check with this tutorial below to see if you still have the
default size of 96 DPI. If everything is to big to see this, then you
can boot into Safe Mode to do this in instead so that you can see
everthing.

I hope this helps,
Shawn

It still goes on even when it is not checked; also it seems to go on
when I hit some key on keyboard

The forward button of the two additional buttons on your mouse will toggle
the magnifier on and off by default.

If you do not want this function, go to the mouse applet in Control Panel
and reassign the button..
