I recently purchased a new Yoga 2 Pro with a gorgeous 3200 x 1800 display. My main purposes for this device was to do some heavy lifting on the the road with many of my professional applications. I was quickly discouraged when I first fired up Fireworks, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, and Illustrator to find that I needed a magnifying glass to see simple menu options.

As always, make sure you backup your registry and tread lightly in this area. We are just going to add one line. This is VERY simple. Do not be intimidated.

1. Press Windows Button + R, type regedit, and then click OK.
2. Navigate to the following registry subkey:
   • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion >SideBySide
3. Right-click, select NEW > DWORD (32 bit) Value
4. Type PreferExternalManifest, and then press ENTER.
5. Right-click PreferExternalManifest, and then click Modify.
6. Enter Value Data 1and select Decimal.
7. Click OK.Exit Registry Editor.

For reference, here is a link to a Microsoft support file on the topic:https://support.microsoft.com/kb/912949/en-us

Step 2: Create and place the external manifest files

Now comes the fun part. You will just have to copy your manifest file to all of the application folders that you would like to change the scaling on. For example, Photoshop.exe is located at:C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)and I created a manifest file in text editor named photoshop.exe.manifest to place in that folder.

Here is a link to a txt file with the manifest code:manifest.txt

For Windows to use the external manifest file, you will have to change the name of the the file to the executable of the application.

Here are the files I created for my machine (Right-click and save to use on your machine):

• photoshop.exe.manifest
• fireworks.exe.manifest
• illustrator.exe.manifest
• dreamweaver.exe.manifest

Now place this file in the same directory as your executable. All of the ones listed above are are in pretty straight forward locations likeC:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe orC:\Program Files\Adobe.

That is it! It should look great now. No need to reboot or change anything else.
