Do You Even Care?

Only happens when you use scaling on your desktop.
Which is common for people using large 4K TV's and monitors. Goes away if you turn scaling off.
Have no clue how Fdev managed to break this. It worked fine for years, then along comes the FC update, and they break scaling.

YES. I know this. I know this is the problem and the solution. Turning off scaling results in things being too small for me on the screen. This is why some of you are all "derp, I gotz Windows 10 and it works for me." But why should I have to do with tiny graphics on the screen just because FDev can't do their job and fix their ?

I use Firefox just BTW.

It's your Windows fault.
There's solution on multiple threads here on forums. Search for it.
I would've helped, but why should I. That's your job.

Cute. But wrong. FDev should care enough to fix their .

The rest of you apologists and white knights... just give it a rest.
 
Fixed it for me, by locating "EDLaunch.exe" > open Context Menu (with right mouse button) > "Properties" pops up > switch to "Compatibility" tab > press "Change high DPI settings" button in the new pop-up > tick (enable) "Override high DPI scaling behavior" and change "Scaling performed by:" from "Application" to System". Then close both popups with ok.
Hope this persist between updates.
Still FDev should fix this for everyone. It used to work before.
Too lazy to search or open an issue in the tracker, but would be happy to up-vote one given a link.

Totally agree. However, you called for it with that title and wording in your post.
I disagree. Re-read my OP. FDev has a reputation among many of not seeming to care about their game, at least as a critical success. The fact that this launcher bug has been around for months now only reinforces that view. Furthermore, the launcher screen is the first thing the customer sees when starting up the game. So my calling FDev out on this is totally appropriate. Note every other game company's launchers (that I've seen\used recently) do not have this issue so they seem to care enough about their game to deal with the issue.

Resetting Internet Explorer (not Edge) to default condition fixed the Launcher issues for me.
How did you get the Reset button?

yeah.. Thank you, actually it was the fact that I have removed IE a long time ago from the system, and this particular version of the Internet Options dialog is only accessible via Internet Explorer menu, not via control panel -> internet options

Fun fact that even after re-installing IE11 and using the Reset button, the issue with ED launcher still persists for me...

Sorry it didn't work out for you Mate. Thanks for the feedback, though. Hope you can get it sorted out. o7
