taskbar icons size

[Jon]

Somehow I made my taskbar icons large. I have tried
resizing the display properties and resizing the taskbar,
but they are still big. How do I make them small again?
My desktop icons are fine, and my start menu icons are
fine. It's only the taskbar icons and I have tried
everything I can think of. Help!

Which icons are you referring to?

If you're referring to the icons in the Quick Launch bar as well as any
custom toolbars, then try the following:
- unlock the taskbar by right-clicking on the clock and unchecking "Lock the
taskbar"
- right-click on the bar on the left side of the toolbar, and go to View \
Small Icons

If you're talking about the icons inside the buttons that correspond to
running programs, check to see if you have High DPI turned on (Display
Properties \ Settings tab \ Advanced button)
