Teddy Rogers Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Is this in general or in your own coded programs you are trying to use DPI scaling? https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dn469266(v=vs.85).aspx Ted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teddy Rogers Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 If the problem applications are DPI aware they could be sizing and scaling certain window items incorrectly. There isn't much you can do about it other than raise a bug report. OllyDbg is DPI unaware so the OS scales the window accordingly... Ted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted. i read some things about external manifest file. i created a manifest file in program directory and made the required reg key but i cant get it done.it is supposed to overwrite programs manifest and make it DPI unaware is there any other place than manifest file in which program informs os if it is DPI aware or not?

Teddy Rogers Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 The program could be telling the OS the application is DPI aware by calling API functions SetProcessDPIAware or SetProcessDpiAwareness. Check if they are calling either of these functions and patch them... Ted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
