New User interface window does not fit
« on: February 13, 2017, 03:53:05 AM »
Avast Internet Security 17.1.2286
The window does not fit my 1280 x 1024 screen; it's too wide so part is out of sight. How can I adjust it?

The referenced forum is for beta. I hope I'm not running beta; the current version was forced on me by an upgrade. I cannot find any reference to window size in the forum.

1280 x 1024 is enough to show everything.
Check your display settings, e.g if you haven't set to show things at 120% or something like that.

It isn't a beta forum, it has two sub-forums that are related to the beta program version when a beta testing session is in progress. You have to click on either of those sub-forum titles to enter them, just click on the New Topic button just below those sub-forum titles.

Eddy, I believe you nailed it. I do have the scale set at 130%, mainly to read older program windows. I don't know why the window is so inflexible. What's the benefit of a non-standard interface? Oh, well, lets call this one solved and move on.
