Help! I shrunk Pro Tools!
Help! I don't know what I did, but I made everything tiny! Everything! Somehow I made the whole Pro Tools app, edit window and everything so tiny I can't hardly see it! I can maximize like you can with any window, but everything in it is still teency tiny. Shutting down doesn't help because it opens up the way it was when it's closed.

If your sure it is something in PT (and not some view option key stroke in Windows) Try Trashing Pro Tools Preferences .................. Before trashing Pro Tools preferences, follow these steps to show hidden folders: Windows 8 & 10 First before trashing PT preferences.... Click ‘View’ in your File Explorer window, then check Hidden items above Show/hide. Then :: Trashing Pro Tools Preferences in Windows Pro Tools 11, 12, and 2018 (I am assuming 2020 .11) Close Pro Tools. Hold the Windows key on your keyboard and press R. When the Run window appears, type %appdata% and press OK. Open the Avid folder, and delete the Pro Tools folder. Restart your computer and launch Pro Tools.

Re: Help! I shrunk Pro Tools!
Windows has a display setting that essentially magnifies the things open on the screen so that they’ll be bigger when opened on a small screen. I forget the name of the setting but it typically defaults to 125% or more on laptops. Look in your display settings for one that increases the size of windows and apps.

Re: Help! I shrunk Pro Tools!
Thanks for the help. It was an emergency situation, so I uninstalled Pro Tools & then re-installed it. The most difficult thing for me to learn was that I had to install the same version of PT.
Back to normal now. Maybe your fix would have been better & saved me time. I could tell it wasn't a Windows problem because no other windows were affected.
