You can choose your display resolutions to control the number of items shown on the screen. The higher the resolution, the more you can fit on a screen and the sharper items appear on the screen. The resolution is the number of dots, or pixels, the monitor displays. You can only select resolutions that your monitor supports. Higher resolutions display more, but items on the screen appear smaller. Lower resolutions on the other hand show larger items on the screen but fewer of them. Windows will try to automatically adjust and select the best resolution for your monitor, but in some cases, the recommended resolution for your display might not be what you want. In this situation, you can choose an optimal resolution for your settings. In some cases, programs will automatically adjust your computer monitor if they think the current configurations might not provide you with the best experience. If it looks good, you can keep the settings. But this change is only temporary. Once you exist, the selected resolution will be chosen.
