If the default scaling values do not fit your taste and you need something in-between, Windows 11 allows setting a custom display scaling. It also describes various DPI-awareness states and how apps behave in them. You can read more about how to find DPI-aware apps in Windows 11 in our dedicated article.

Still, you might need to reopen some apps that do not support per-monitor DPI-awareness version 2. Windows 11 applies the new scaling immediately and without the need to restart the system or sign out of your profile. Also, you may be unable to change the display scaling in Windows 11 if a GPU driver is missing. The Recommended percentage value is the default scale size. Note that the number of available scaling options depends on your monitor size and resolution.
