No, it's not. Since nobody seems to be interested I've decided to toss it in the trash.

Well, I bit the bullet and ended up subscribing to Office 365 due to lack of alternative. This is mostly likely going to be one of the few if not the only Office 365 subscription that will never see the installation of the included Office applications. Thanks everybody for your input.

Didn't Microsoft end the referral program a while ago? Based on my research they must've ended the free storage program somewhen in late 2017 or early 2018. Has it been reinstated since? Either way, she'd have to refer a lot of people to get from 50GB to 200GB given the 500MB increments per...

I realize that, thank you. I still have to pay for it though, which is what I would prefer to avoid.

Is there any way to purchase a higher OneDrive storage tier without having Office 365 forced down my throat as well? My wife is currently on the 50GB $2/month plan and very happy with it, but she will require more storage space very soon (around 200-300GB should do for a looooong time). It has...

No, the screen is in mint condition.

Price update: $40 or trade-in.

I have a barely used fully working Nokia Lumia 830 smartphone. Unlocked, European model (RM-984). Works great in the US with AT&T, T-Mobile, and all of their respective resellers and MVNOs. Don't know about Canada as I'm not familiar with Canada's MNO/MVNO landscape, sorry. It's running the...

I've tried that too, to no avail. The custom scale factor was applied to all screens, which made the external 4k display unusable, and I've uesd aforementioned red text to reset it. Unfortunately, it went back from tiny to crappy.

That's it, I officially gave up and rolled back to 1607. It's completely and utterly ridiculous what Microsoft has managed to do here - fonts look decidedly better on 1607 than on 1703 because now they're only blurry and not jagged anymore. Much easier on the eyes, I couldn't stand it much...

Come on people, I can't possibly be the only one with that problem :straight: Is nobody else using two displays with different scaling factors? This is really bothering me, and I'm about to roll back to the previous version.

Here's yet another example: I've tried fiddling with the ClearType settings to no avail. That only made it worse...

Here are two examples of what I mean. The first is Outlook 2007 (2016 has the exact same problem), the second is PuTTY: Prior to the update the fonts were still blurry but they were't jagged at all, and much easier to read. As it is my eyes start to hurt after a while.

I was soooo looking forward to Windows 10 1703 because Microsoft claimed to have finally addressed the font scaling issues they've been having with HiDPI displays. And address it they did. Only that it has gotten much worse than before. I have an external 4k display attached to my Thinkpad...

Holy ...! That was it, thank you! It never occured to me to scroll down the left side of that window. EVER. This is probably the least intuitive way to get this done. Not onliy does it not adhere to any of Microsoft's GUI design guidelines but it opens the OneDrive app within the file open...
