OK, Hold down ctrl, and then scroll out with the mouse. If you do not have a mouse handy then just use the minus key on the keyboard.

Just Restart your computer again and see of that helps.

that won't help as it saves your settings whenever you shut it down.

Not necessarily, I've had this happen to me a couple of times on my older laptop and just a simple restart corrected my problem.

Really, OK, thanks for the info

Yea, I can't really explain why, as I was baffled by it too. Maybe the Restart didn't fix it, maybe it was just a coincidence that something else happened.

A good ol' restart can fix anything! (apart from the common cold...)

When I faced that problem then restarting my PC helped me. You can try this one also.
