I'm running towards 60 now. Stared at computer screens for my whole working life, and my eyes aren't getting better.
I very much would like an option to adjust the font sizes for your so gratefully used program.
thanks!

hello,
I'm running towards 60 now. Stared at computer screens for my whole working life, and my eyes aren't getting better.
I very much would like an option to adjust the font sizes for your so gratefully used program.
thanks!

Welcome eppie
Thankfully I am near sighted so when I read the screen for a long time I don't wear my contact lenses because I have to keep my reading glasses handy that I misplace all the time.
I keep my distance glasses by the TV when I know that I will fall asleep watching it.
Quite a while back my mum gave me hand held magnifying glass that she said will come in handy for later use and now I am glad she gave that to me for reading instructions on things that are even small when I don't wear my contact lenses.
I keep the screen resolution to a maximum of 1024x768 as higher resolution everything becomes way too small.
That's one of the things about The Golden Years I can do without.

ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION
DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.
Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)
ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.
