I am running version 1703 of Win 10 Pro.  I cannot find those font settings anywhere.-techidave (August 01, 2017, 06:01 AM)

It's gone in 1703, all you've got now is a percentage scaling under Settings->System->Display->Scale and layout.
There may be settings in the registry that can be written directly.

I just now remembered to add this to the list for all those who may want to be able to change system font sizes in (apparently all versions of) Windows 10, despite Microsoft having rudely removed said functionality:
Refer:

* ghacks blog 2017-04-12: System Font [Size] Changer: restore font changing in Windows 10 Creators Update
* download SystemFontSizeChanger: <https://www.wintools.info/index.php/system-font-size-changer> - current version per this post is v1.1.1.22 (2018-03-03)All I can say is that the ability to set these system font sizes and boldness is one of the best things someone with eyesight problems can do to improve the readability of their computer screens.
Try it and see.
(I've added this to the Index in the OP.)

For anyone who hasn't heard of BlackViper, outside of Microsoft he's probably the best source of what services do what in Windows and which ones can safely be set to manual, disabled, etc.

BlackViperScript by madbomb122 is a PowerShell script that displays a GUI and allows you to select various service configurations based on BlackViper's recommendations.

It allows you to perform a dry run to show what will be changed as well as perform a backup, (to .csv and/or .reg).

He also has another PowerShell script that allows you to tweak various aspects of Windows 10: Win10Script

Thanks!

1803 created so many problems for me that a madbomber's probably the best solution (that or a total wipe and  re-install of Windows).
