Technical Description:
So what causes this problem? Windows 10 applies automatic scaling for programs based on your monitor size/resolution. Here’s an example from a Windows 10 device that was set to 150% scaling by default. Higher resolution monitors and ultra-wide displays are more likely to have a scaling factor applied in Windows Display Settings. Same thing can happen when you have another monitor plugged in. If you’re up for some more technical information about DPI scaling in WIndows 10 head on over to MS blog: Display Scaling in Windows 10 https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/archive/blogs/askcore/display-scaling-in-windows-10 and Scaling changes for Windows 10 Anniversary Update https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/archive/blogs/askcore/display-scaling-changes-for-the-windows-10-anniversary-update
