How do I make Pro Tools look bigger on my 2K monitor with Windows 11?

DAWs Pro Tools

I just got a new 2K monitor. When I opened Pro Tools, all of the text and features were microscopic. I tried changing the Scale value in Window’s display settings but that didn’t work. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

I had the same thing happen to me! Here’s the solution:

  1. Start with Pro Tools closed.
  2. Set Windows’ Scale value to 100% (Right-click on the Desktop > Display Settings > Scale > 100%).
  3. Open Pro Tools.
  4. Change Window’s Scale value to whichever value you want to use (125%, 150%, etc.).

For some reason, Pro Tools doesn’t scale itself properly if you open the application using a scale value other than 100%.
