[Teddy Rogers]

Is this in general or in your own coded programs you are trying to use DPI scaling?

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...

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]

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...
