Windows 10在自动为您的显示器选择屏幕分辨率(screen resolution)和文本大小(text size)方面做得很好。您可能仍需要调整以平衡清晰度、速度和可以在屏幕上填充多少像素。当您玩游戏或将Windows 10 PC 连接到投影仪或电视时，这一点尤其明显。让我们学习如何在Windows 10中更改(Windows 10)屏幕分辨率(screen resolution)以及使文本和图标(text and icons)变大或变小：
设置屏幕分辨率比以前更加自动化
在Windows 10中，操作系统(operating system)会尝试正确识别您的显示器型号(monitor model)、纵横比和支持的分辨率。如果一切顺利，它会自动将分辨率设置为显示器支持的最大值。这意味着您在首次登录Windows 10后即可获得最大的可用屏幕空间。(Windows 10)您可能仍想在某些时候更改分辨率，因为您的游戏速度不够快或图标和文本的大小太小，您无法阅读它们。在继续之前，我们建议您阅读：屏幕分辨率或纵横比是多少？720p、1080i 和 1080p 是什么意思？它提供了上下文并解释了更改屏幕分辨率时需要考虑的概念。
如何进入Windows 10中的(Windows 10)屏幕分辨率(screen resolution)设置
在Windows 10(Windows 10)中更改屏幕的分辨率或方向是通过Display Settings完成的。打开设置应用程序，选择系统(System)，然后从左栏中选择显示。(Display)
到达那里的最快方法是右键单击或点击并按住(tap and hold)桌面上的任意位置，然后从上下文菜单中选择显示设置。(Display Settings)
它会弹出一个窗口，允许您更改Windows 10(way Windows 10)的显示方式。
在Windows 10(Windows 10)中，当您进行多显示器设置时，(multi-monitor setup)屏幕分辨率(screen resolution)设置是什么样的
您经常会看到涉及多个显示器的设置。大多数人使用双显示器设置，但三显示器设置也越来越受欢迎。
以下是在Windows 10中使用双屏配置时显示设置(Display Settings)窗口的外观：
如您所见，显示了两个监视器。用鼠标或手指选择其中一个屏幕，然后您可以更改其设置。(Select one)每台显示器都可以单独设置，除非您进行重复设置(duplicate setting)以强制两者使用相同的分辨率。
如何在Windows中更改(Windows)屏幕分辨率(screen resolution)
要开始进行更改，请单击或点击标有(click or tap)分辨率(Resolution)的下拉菜单。
您可以滚动列表以找到正确的设置。例如，如果您的显示器是 1080p 或 1080i，请记住这意味着最大分辨率为 1920 x 1080像素。但是，您可能会看到比这更高的分辨率，具体取决于您的显示器。
可用的分辨率主要取决于显示器的纵横比，因此您会看到适合它的分辨率。但是，您也可以看到适用于其他纵横比的较低分辨率。虽然显示器可以使用它们，但事情可能并不像您想要的那样相称。选择要尝试的分辨率后，单击或点击(click or tap)它。
你的屏幕变黑了。别担心，这是正常的。然后在屏幕上使用您的新分辨率，您可以选择保留或恢复原样。
Windows会显示一个带有消息“(Windows)保留这些显示设置(Keep these display settings.)”的弹出窗口。它会倒计时到零，然后自动将显示恢复到更改之前的状态。这是一种保护措施：如果您的屏幕保持黑色或显示异常，您所要做的就是等待几秒钟，然后您就会恢复原来的显示。但是，如果您对外观感到满意，请单击或点击“保留更改(Keep changes.)” 。
如果Windows 10在特定分辨率旁边列出了建议(recommended)的文本，它会在您更改它时显示附加警告作为通知，说明新的屏幕分辨率不适合您的显示器。
当您单击此通知时，您会看到一个弹出窗口。您可以通过选中“禁用此解决通知(Disable this resolution notification)”复选框来决定将来停止显示此通知。
屏幕分辨率变化有什么影响？
更改屏幕分辨率后，可能会出现两个问题：
- 首先，如果您提高屏幕分辨率，您可能会发现视频密集型显示（例如游戏）可能会明显变慢，因为视频需要更多时间才能以更高的分辨率呈现。如果您的视频卡(video card)无法满足您正在玩的游戏的需求，就会发生这种情况。即使视频卡(video card)起着关键作用，其他硬件组件也会对体验产生负面影响。
- 其次，您可能会发现您的屏幕看起来大不相同。图标和文本的大小可能已经改变，如果您选择了极高的分辨率，它们可能会太小以至于您无法阅读。如果您从远处观看显示器，例如在投影仪或电视上显示，则尤其如此。
对于减速，解决方法是更改为较低的分辨率。可能需要一些时间来尝试各种选择以获得可接受的图形清晰度和速度(clarity and speed)组合。
对于icon/text problem，有两种选择：更改为较低的分辨率，或者更改图标和文本的大小。
如何在Windows 10中更改图标和文本的大小(Windows 10)
这可以直接从“显示设置”(Display Settings)窗口完成。单击或点按“(Click)更改文本、应用程序和其他项目的大小(Change the size of text, apps, and other items.)”的下拉菜单。
该菜单包含一些由Windows 10计算的选项，以匹配您的屏幕分辨率（分辨率越低，选项越少）。尝试单击或点击选项。Windows会立即应用更改。
如果文本和图标(text and icons)仍然不正确，请再次执行该过程以尝试其他尺寸。
您使用的屏幕分辨率是多少？
在您找到满足您需求的最佳设置之前，实验是必不可少的。尝试不同的屏幕分辨率，让我们知道您选择了哪一种。另外，您是否更改了文本、应用程序和其他项目的大小？在下面发表评论(Comment)，让我们讨论。
Change the screen resolution and make text and icons bigger in Windows 10
Windows 10 does a good job at seleсting the screen resolution and the text sizе for your display aυtomatically. You may still want to adjust to balance between clarity, speed and how mаny рixels you can cram on the screen. This becomes especially true when you play games or connect your Windows 10 PC to a projector or a TV. Let's learn hоw to change the screen resolution and make the text and icons bigger or smаller, in Windows 10:
Setting the screen resolution is more automatic than it used to be
In Windows 10, the operating system tries to correctly identify your monitor model, its aspect ratio and supported resolutions. If all goes well, it automatically sets the resolution to the maximum supported by your display. It means you get the maximum screen space available as soon as you log into Windows 10 for the first time. You may still want to change the resolution at some point because your games are not fast enough or the size of the icons and text is too small, and you cannot read them. Before moving forward, we recommend you to read: What is the screen resolution or the aspect ratio? What do 720p, 1080i & 1080p mean?. It provides the context and explains the concepts you need to consider when changing screen resolution.
How to get to the screen resolution settings in Windows 10
Changing the screen's resolution, or its orientation in Windows 10 is done from Display Settings. Open the Settings app, select System and then Display from the left column.
The fastest way to get there is to right-click or tap and hold anywhere on your desktop and choose Display Settings from the context menu.
It brings up a window that allows you to make changes to the way Windows 10 is displayed.
What the screen resolution settings look like, in Windows 10, when you have a multi-monitor setup
You often see setups in which more than one monitor is involved. Most people go with a dual-monitor setup, but three-monitor setups are also increasingly popular.
Here's what the Display Settings window looks like when using a dual-screen configuration in Windows 10:
As you can see, both monitors are shown. Select one of the screens with the mouse or with your finger, and then you can change its settings. Each monitor can be set up separately unless you go for a duplicate setting which forces the same resolution on both.
How to change the screen resolution in Windows
To begin making changes, click or tap on the drop-down menu labeled Resolution.
You can scroll through the list to find the right setting. If your monitor is 1080p or 1080i, for example, remember that that translates to a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. However, you may see higher resolutions than that, depending on your monitor.
The available resolutions are mostly dependent on the display's aspect ratio, so you see resolutions that work for it. However, you can also see lower resolutions that are meant for other aspect ratios. While the monitor can use them, things may not be as proportionate as you would like. Once you have picked the resolution you want to try out, click or tap on it.
Your screen goes black. Do not worry, this is normal. Then your new resolution is used on the screen, and you are given the option to keep it or put it back the way it was.
Windows displays a pop-up window with the message "Keep these display settings." It does a countdown to zero and then automatically reverts your display to what it was before you changed it. It is a safeguard: if your screen stays black or weirdly displays things, all you have to do is wait a few seconds, and you get your original display back. However, if you are happy with the way things look, click or tap "Keep changes."
If Windows 10 lists next to a particular resolution the text recommended, it displays an additional warning as a notification when you change it, saying that the new screen resolution is not optimal for your display.
When you click this notification, you get a pop-up window. You can decide to stop this notification showing up in the future by selecting the "Disable this resolution notification" checkbox.
What is the impact of screen resolution changes?
Once you have changed the resolution of your screen, two problems may occur:
- First, if you increase the screen resolution, you may find that video-intensive displays (such as games) may be noticeably slower since the video takes more time to render at higher resolutions. It happens if you have a video card that is not able to meet the demands of the games you are playing. Other hardware components can negatively affect the experience too, even though the video card plays a critical role.
- Second, you may find that your screen looks considerably different. The icons and text may have changed size, and if you have chosen an extremely high resolution, they may be so small that you cannot read them. It is especially true if you watch the display from a distance as in the case of displaying on a projector or a TV.
For slowdowns, the fix is to change to a lower resolution. It may take some time to experiment with the various choices to get an acceptable combination of graphic clarity and speed.
For the icon/text problem, there are two choices: change to a lower resolution, or change the size of the icons and text.
How to change the size of icons and text in Windows 10
This can be done right from the Display Settings window. Click or tap the drop-down menu for "Change the size of text, apps, and other items."
The menu contains a few options calculated by Windows 10 to match your screen resolution (the lower the resolution, the fewer options). Try clicking or tapping on the options. The change is applied by Windows instantly.
If the text and icons are still not right, go through the procedure again to try another size.
What is the screen resolution that you are using?
Experimentation is essential until you find the best settings for your needs. Try different screen resolutions, and let us know which one you have chosen. Also, did you change the size of text, apps, and other items? Comment below and let's discuss.
