Lies, there is a second Lenovo laptop 15.6 - 1920 x 1080, when booting on previous versions it was always 100%, therefore, the FACTORY PROFILE of the matrix was taken for the HP laptop matrix, Windows tech support replied in the chat that 120% is not taken randomly, but takes into account the FACTORY PROFILE, you just unsubscribed, and if I am 100% now if I switch to 125%, then, for example, the SETTINGS application will look like shit until you open it to the full screen - the elements are feverishly arranged, going beyond the fields and borders, this was not observed with automatic scaling, and I did not name the topic - Setting the default coefficient, I called it AUTOSCALING. In short, everything is clear, we remain on the Windows OPERATING SYSTEM, and not on a homemade one. There is no such thing as a "factory profile" outside of the factory-preinstalled Windows image, and the algorithm for deciding on the default scale has simply been changed. If you don't want to deal with anything outside of what the manufacturer preinstalled, then that's your choice to make, but don't be rude to people about it. |
