Chrome tabs and bookmarks bar became big (with Chrome 37)

With Google Chrome 37, depending on your screen resolution, it’s possible that yout get a tabs bar and a bookmarks bar much bigger than usually.

No worries, there is an easy and quick workaround for this!

For that, just follow next steps:

  • Perform a right click on your Chrome shortcut and then go to Properties
  • In Target line, add these parameters at the end: /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1
  • You should now have such a line:
    “C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe” /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1
  • You can now validate and restart Chrome

You will find back the expected size, as you used to see!
