Hi there!

I have multiple monitor setups for my 3 screens (2 Dell UH2414H and a Samsung TV, all FullHD monitors). Every time I switch the profiles, the background image switches correctly, but the taskbar items in the bottom right corner get blurry somehow. On the Samsung TV I have the slider for the size of text, app, and other items on 125% and on both Dell monitors on 100%. All monitors are cleartype text configured. With a restart the issue disappears.

Is there a solution to this, so the icons do not get pixelated without restarting?

Edit: I use Windows 10 x64 Version 1607 (Build 14393.351)

Unfortunately a logout/login, or restart would be required. When the scaling level changes in Windows, it doesn't always warn you that it needs a logout/login, but it's definitely required. Windows will continue to report the old scaling level to some apps until that's been done
