Turn Off Magnifier

[Imthyaz K]

Hi, this is the first time i am using Windows Vista, hence dont have much knowledge about its settings and all. I found that Magnifier is turned On by default on this system and it comes up every time i start my computer. Though i turn it off but the next time when i start the system, it comes again. I want to disable it permanently. To do the same i type Turn Off Magnifier in Start Menu and an option came up for the same. I clicked the same but it only allows me to turn it on! There is no option to turn it off.

I did some searches on Web and found few workouts but none of them working for me. Can someone please tell me what exactly is the problem and how can i get rid of the same permanently? Thanks for all your helps.

Just go through the following steps.

• Click Start, click Control Panel.
• Here search for an option called Ease Of Access icon. Click the same.
• Now click Optimize Visual Display. This will bring up a screen called Make Computer Easier to see.
• Now Scroll down to the magnifier and uncheck magnifier selection
• Now click Apply and you are done.

Hello Imthyaz . Did you made any changes to your mouse settings? I guess so because it seems like maybe one of the buttons of the mouse is set to magnifier and you pressed that button. Better go to Control Panel and change your mouse settings to default. restart the system and see if still the problem persists.

ive finnally cracked it
go into controll pannel and click on ease of computer then switch magnifier to off once done that instead of apllying click save then reboot your computer and you will find that magnifier does not load up any more.
