Windows: Change screen size or resolution

It only takes a few clicks to change the screen size under Windows. We'll show you how to adjust the screen resolution.

How to change the screen resolution in Windows

1. Open the Control Panel via the Windows logo at the bottom left (formerly "Start").
2. Under the menu "Display and adjustment" navigate to the point "Adjust screen resolution".
3. Here you can now set the resolution particularly high or slightly lower. You then have 15 seconds to confirm your entry - otherwise the change will be reset for security reasons.

Tip: You can also change the screen resolution much faster. To do this, simply right-click on your desktop. You will find the desired settings under the "Screen resolution" grid.
