Did you know by default Windows Explorer and My Computer displayed the same type that Windows XP uses for the title icon on the desktop? If you haven’t change since first installation, the default is Tahoma, 8 point. Just incase you want to change the font size or the font used in Windows Explorer, follow these steps:
- Open the Display Properties dialog box by right-clicking the desktop and select Properties.
- Navigate to Appearance tab and click the advanced button.
- Select Icon from the Item drop-down list.
- Use the Font drop-down arrow to select a font from the list.
- Click OK to apply , and close Display Properties dialog box
