All of a sudden when receiving payments in QB Desktop the bottom of the receive payments screen is cut off. We enter notes in the memo section and only part of that is showing. Also the Save & Close, Save & New and Clear buttons are cut off. To access those I need to now maximize the window. No changes have been made to the computer itself including any display settings. Everything else is fine.

Let me help you fix the screen issues you're encountering in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), @GWPlumbing.

 

If you have a newer high-resolution monitor, you'll need to change your default settings in QuickBooks.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Close QuickBooks Desktop.
  2. Open the Windows Start menu.
  3. Type "QuickBooks" into the search. Then right-click the QuickBooks icon and select Open file location.
  4. In the folder, right-click the QuickBooks.exe file and select Properties.
  5. Go to the Compatibility tab.
  6. Select the Disable display scaling on high DPI settings checkbox. You can also select Change high DPI settings and then Override high DPI scaling behavior.
  7. Select Apply and then OK.

 

Once done, open QuickBooks and look for display issues. If everything looks good, you're good to go.

However, if the issue persists, move on to Step 2 in this article: Fix screen issues in QuickBooks Desktop. After following Step 2, close and reopen QuickBooks and your company file. Check around for display issues. If you still see them, move on to Step 3.
