[GNC] Blurry Font Issue on Windows

[John Ralls]

HiDPI Display?
Make sure that application scaling is enabled in System>Display>Advanced settings. If that doesn't do it there are some more settings that you can get to on the compatibility tab of the start menu shortcut properties: There's a button called Change high DPI settings.

Regards,
John Ralls
