Lately at times when I start my pc the screen has resized for some reason, today it was changed to 50%. No problem to change back just wondering why. No one else has access to this machine...

What is your default setting in your Control Panel under Hardware and Sounds - Display?

are you talking about the magnification level in your browser or the entire screen itself?

The default setting is 100%, and yes primarily the browser display as this unit is used almost exclusively for internet. Thanks guys...

It would be helpful to know which browser you're using. If it is by chance Internet Explorer then try this;

Close all tabs except for one.

Change the magnification level by using the control at the bottom right of the browser window or use the View / Zoom menu to choose a magnification level.

Close the browser using the File / Exit menu selection.

Open up a new browsing session. See if the magnification is set to what you chose prior.

Any new tabs you open up should use the new setting.

If you have multiple browsers open, close all but one.

At this point you might reboot your computer... some systems will take a change without rebooting but some wont, save the time and reboot anyway!

Is it possible that you hit Ctrl and + at the same time by accident? If to, try Ctrl and - a few times until the browser window is where you want it.
