New 60' TV giving me a big problem!

[Harbertown]

Hello, my new TV is giving me a problem I have never had before. I took a screenshot. It is squishing my apps like UOsteam and I can't even read what they say. I tried to pull the top and sides to stretch them out, but it doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated thanks!

It's an issue with these high-res displays to make text still readable, the text is enlarged, but the text boxes & overall layout doesn't take that into account, making it all squished like that.

Try this: right click on desktop -> Screen Resolution -> Make text larger or smaller -> ... in that menu, make it smaller. Will make other things harder to read, but you can try and get a more optimal setting.
(i have win7, menus might be a bit different on win10)

Couldn't help myself but to remember this meme:

Aha I just saw your pic about the 60 inch TV! That is hilarious! Hmm, except now that is me, so maybe not as much? haha

OK problem fixed. It was something to do with the custom scaling options. Everything shows up fine now! THANKFULLY!
