So recently I upgraded to windows 10 at the same time I got a 4k display.

When I set the display scaling to 150% on my main 4k monitor and ensuring that the scaling stays at 100% on my other two 1080p monitors, the entire chrome application is blurry when viewing on the 1080 monitors, and I cannot seem to fix this. Other applications seem to be okay.

Furthermore after the scaling change, some icons on my 1080 monitor's desktop get larger, as if some scaling is applied to them.

Is there any solution to this? At the moment I have had to set the scaling back to 100% on my main monitor in order to use chrome on the smaller monitors.

Hello,

Please try the following;

- Disable scaling by opening properties of the application/short cut.
> Right click on Google Chrome icon
> Click on Properties
> Click on the Compatibility tab
> Check "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings"
> Click on Apply and Ok.

You may try as well to disable the DPI scaling by the custom sizing option:

Hi Pearlmaster,

Many thanks for your response!

Unfortunately when I take the steps you describe Chrome becomes blurry on the 4k monitor instead of the 1080p monitors. Is there a way around this?

Furthermore, I cannot see an option in Windows 10 for http://i.stack.imgur.com/BATKg.png. Is it elsewhere?
