Why Windows 10 Fonts Become Blurry?
This issue is linked to the modern user interface that came with Windows 8 in 2012. Since that time, Microsoft Windows comes with the modern UI feature that provides ultra-optimize resolution for the applications. It enhances the display quality automatically by recognizing the apps that you use. Even though the modern UI brought some interesting display improvements, it sometimes acts up. Since it automatically configures the display settings on your computer according to your applications, it may cause blurry fonts.
