Guys, I have a tech question. I have the latest version of Chrome (Chrome 38) and around Wednesday when I opened Chrome up the scaling settings are all fucked up.

Everything is HUGE. I feel like I'm a senior citizen with zooming software. Pictures don't fit, text is big, everything is big, the file/bookmarks list is too wide, etc.

I looked at the zoom settins and DPI, both are normal. My computers scaling is normal too.

IDK what's going on, is it a bug with Chrome or do I need to do something? Anyone else having this issue?

Control scroll wheel is the zoom.

And no, not a virus either. Computer is running fine and all virus scans come up negative.

There is a workaround for a bug in chrome. You can try it and maybe it'll work for you.

- On your desktop, right click on the Chrome shortcut

- Click on Properties and then add /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1 at the end of the target link. Click apply and then ok.
Close all running chrome processes from the taskbar, open chrome back up and see if it's fixed. That's all I can really find on solving it.

If that doesn't work, you could always uninstall and re-install chrome and see if the issue is fixed.

Tried everything man. Now today the text is messed up. Like the spacing between letters is more spaced out.
