How To FIX Small Icons in Greenshot Editor

Are the icons in the Greenshot appearing tiny and hard to see? Here’s a quick fix for it.

Greenshot is one of the most popular, lightweight, and open-source screenshot software for Windows. The best thing about it is that it has a built-in editor that lets you quickly annotate your screenshot right after taking it. However, on high-resolution screens, the editor’s icons can appear incredibly small, making it difficult to use. Thankfully, this problem is pretty simple to fix.

  6. With that, the problem is fixed and icons appear bigger in the Greenshot editor.
