Blurry fonts under Windows 10 with scaling >=125%

When you change the Scaling in Win 10 to more then 100% (125% in my case, to increase fonts size) - all uTorrent fonts become blurry. See example here:

It seems to be caused by a new feature in Win 10 as explained here:  http://windows10_dpi_blurry_fix.xpexplorer.com

There is also a workaround suggested in the above links.

A quick test is by changing the Compatibility property on utorrent.exe and to check: "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings"

 

Applications, uTorrent included, should be ported to using this new Win10 behavior!

Your links are just going round and round in circles...

I suggest you read the reference links. If there is a change in the OS, uT should be revised to support it (as it is supported in Win7). You do not seriously believe that M$ will do anything special to help uT users, right?...

I just created an account, I can confirm what @rafi is saying.

I have a FULL HD(1920x1280) monitor. In Windows display settings I have it as 125% (as recommended)

Utorrent text and icons are blurry, I hope they can push an update for utorrent and fix this. The most of the applications are getting updated to support DPI scaling, why isn't Utorrent?

Until they do, you can try the workaround-app suggested in my reference links. It works for me...

It seems like uT  is not the ONLY app with this issue....
