The menu bar, popup and navigation bar are too tiny font in Chrome
How can I change the font size? I already tired settings>custom font but that does not change menu font size at all
My display size is set to 2560X1440
I am using windows 10
and scaled up everything to 225% so that texts are visible. I don't have this issues in other apps or browsers, the problem persists only with Google Chrome menu fonts.
Thank you for your input

This sounds like a DPI scaling issue. Chrome uses some system/OS related settings for the fonts of these UI elements... it would be nice if they didn't do that and had it be customizable like the rest of the in-browser/website fonts.
- Go to the Chrome shortcut and right-click. -- if you are doing so from the start menu or taskbar; you will right-click on the app icon again (from the pop-up menu) to see 'properties'.
- select properties option.
- Open the "Compatibility" tab
- click on "Change high DPI settings".
- click the "Override high DPI scaling behavior" option
- use drop down to select the dpi scaling behavior of the app.
you may need to play with your system settings and app override settings. but IIRC this is how it's done. more info and links below;

4This behavior is not normal to a well-installed Chrome version.
First, check if the behavior is due to any extension: In Chrome,
navigate to chrome://extensions/, disable all extensions and
restart Chrome. If the problem is gone, then enable the extensions
back one by one, checking after each one.
If the above didn't help, I suggest to uninstall Chrome usingRevo Uninstaller Free, checking for and deleting any leftover folders, then installing the latest Chrome version.
