As usual, you need to close all Chrome Windows and processes, then restart the browser. The post author was kind enough to add a registry ready to go located here ( download link). According to a blog post on, the registry locations are: Our savvy commenters have pointed our that Chrome 37+ is using a new registry location to ensure that Chrome for both 64bit and 32bit Windows knows that it needs to use HiDPI. Solution for Chrome 37, April 2014īecause it is still under active development, the high DPI activation has moved around a few times. Beware that if this was indeed a bug, Google may “fix it” and undo these tweaks again. Note that if you have Chrome pinned onto the taskbar, you may have to edit that shortcut, or create a new one and edit it. This change was linked to a Chrome bug which is described here in the Chromium development bug tracker as Issue 395425. It is documented on other sites like superuser, which picked up the solution from reddit.
I have since had the time to check his solution, and it is valid. “C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe” /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1 * In my situation the Target field contains this line: I _added_ the following to this: /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1 * In the Target input field the path to Chrome is shown. * Right-click the Chrome icon shortcut on the taskbar What _did_ work for me was the following: Changing the registry settings didn’t work (Chrome resets them). Yesterday Chrome upgraded to “.94 m” and since then I had the scaling issues. I’m running on the stable releases of Chrome. Ubergizmo commenter “Mark” was the first to bring a solution to this thread (thank you!), which I’m going to paste below. Sometime in late August, user have started reporting more changes, and users have reported the the registry changes no longer work. A GeForce GTX 760 card (Display Port to Mini-DisplayPort cable).Unfortunately, the old tricks won’t work anymore, but fret not there is a solution that does. I mostly tolerated the lack of high DPI on 13.3” laptop screens, but now that I work with a 32” 4K desktop display, I can no longer use Chrome without true high DPI support. I have messed with a few beta features before, and some of them ended up making Chrome completely unusable. It’s not news that the Chrome support for high DPI (hiDPI) has been a work in progress for some time, and within the past year or so, the proliferation of high DPI displays on laptops has made the need for good high dpi support even more important.
