    Multiframe - Small Icons on 4k Screens

    Users with very high resolution screens are finding that the icons in Multiframe are very small and hard to see.

    There are no settings in Multiframe to fix this - however we can instruct Windows to treat the software as DPI Aware. we do this through importing a registry key. One of the great things about this solution is that Windows will adapt per monitor, so you can view the icons at a comfortable size on a high resolution laptop and low resolution external monitor.

    The attached file is a text file. Internet security doesn't like *.reg files, so you will need to download it and rename the extension from *.reg.txt to *.reg Make sure that file extensions are visible on your computer.

    Once you have changed the file extension, double click to run the file.
