Other settings in the Control Panel affect both the Start
screen and desktop. For example, you can apply higher screen resolution
settings to improve the clarity of onscreen images. Higher resolutions
make the overall screen elements smaller, while lower resolutions make
them bigger. Use resolution to adjust what’s on screen so that things
are comfortable for you to view and read.

Tip
The higher the resolution numbers, the crisper the image on
your screen. However, some resolutions can distort the proportions of
your screen so that items appear out of perspective. Also, not all
monitors support the highest resolutions.
