Roon isn't correctly displayed on HiDPI-Monitor

[Kersten_Kusch (Lars Kusch)]

Core Machine (Operating system/System info/Roon build number)

Windows 10 (Build 19042.685), Intel Core i5-7400, 16GB DDR4, Music on 4TB RAID 1 drives, Roon Build 710 x64

Description Of Issue
When opening the Roon application in Windows 10 on an monitor with 3840x2160px with a windows scaling factor of 300% roon isn’t starting correctly - it just starts in fullscreen-mode. When setting the scaling-factor to 250% everything goes perfectly fine.
Is there any possibilty to display roon with 300% scaling-factor?

Hi @Kersten_Kusch,

You’ll need to use a different scaling factor in order for Roon to work how you’d like here. The good news is you can set up just Roon to use this scaling factor so everything else will remain at 300%. Please see this post:

Roon will not display on 3200x1800 screen (says: screen to small)

I would start by looking at Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Display and selecting Make Text and other items larger or smaller – in Windows 8.1 it looks like this: [image] If that doesn’t work, you can force the scale factor like this: [image] The Roon exe is in the Application folder of your Roon folder You can also can add the same -scalefactor=2 argument to the shortcut that you launch Roon with on your desktop or Start menu. Let me know if that helps @Carl_Henrik_Jans…
