    Yes, I meant with this new feature enabled. Sorry I wasn't clearer.

    Ok
    here we go...

    I have, believe me, I have done my homework, namely read all the posts I could only find on the issue.

    W 10 10240

    The fonts are, heck, you know it, blurry and fuzzy and ugly.

    The compatibility mode helps for individual programmes, but windows manage the computer or device manager or task scheduler are still not crystal clear.

    Can anyone confirm updating the system helps? or updating the geforce drivers helps?

    And that sounds reasonable enough - any other opinions? please

    The issue with fonts still persists, althought I have not updated the OS yet.

    Tried all the mentioned fixes, tweaks, mac type program, clear type settings, fix dpi programme.

    I did somehow help the issue on a Lenovo laptop but no idea which tweak actually worked as we applied 3 at the same time [stupid of us].

    If anyone knows anything, I''d be grateful.

    You will only need to do this if you have an internet plan with limited data. When it's enabled Windows Updates won't be downloaded when you are connected to the internet by wifi.

    And assuming I don't download any updates and never use any apps?
