Windows 10 File Explorer is one of the central points of the operating system since from there we have access to various libraries such as Documents, Downloads or Images, we have access to both internal and external storage units and many more actions. From there we can see that we have a concrete appearance with a font and a predetermined size of icons and letter. One of the advantages of File Explorer in Windows 10 is its ease and various options to customize it , it will be possible to change folder icons, drive icons, add or remove folders, show or hide the tape and many more actions. The appearance of our team is important, especially if we work hard in front of the monitor. Each user has different needs so being able to adjust the size of what we see on the screen is quite important..
One of the normal problems of Windows Explorer is that if we want to increase the size of its fonts there is no integrated option and it is necessary to access the direct scaling of the entire system which affects all applications globally which is not initial objective, but with the new version of Windows 10 called Redstone 5, version 1803, this functionality is added directly in the browser which will be of great help for thousands of users.
