ok, switching to it is not a problem.
the important thing is you can leave it without the use of any third party apps and without the need to use registry editor.
you can even turn off pc, start again, and switch resolution/scaling back to normal 😀
A fun prank from the days of yore, was to use a registry run entry to set the desktop to no picture, then all the colors for everything to solid black by calling regedit with a hidden .reg file.
Good times.
this one is perfectly fixable:
you may need run this line in a .bat file to autohide the taskbar (if you haven't hid it before):
powershell -command "&{$p='HKCU:SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\StuckRects3';$v=(Get-ItemProperty -Path $p).Settings;$v[8]=3;&Set-ItemProperty -Path $p -Name Settings -Value $v;&Stop-Process -f -ProcessName explorer}"
then you just click on desktop under icons, hit options key on keyboard and choose display settings
then you have to click almost at bottom of the screen (lowest possible) and start scrolling with keyboard (using page down key) till you see blue text "turn off custom scaling and sing out" and click it
that's all 😀
i just noticed that line probably uses a registry editing command but it is not needed if you autohid the taskbar before
