Windows Vista magnifier problem

Hello, Can anybody advise how to kill the magnifier. I have tried going to 'Control Panel' then 'Ease of Access' but the box is not ticked and it says 'Turn Magnifier On' although the magnifier it is active
Any advise please it is driving me mad
Regards

 

Have you tried to turn it on and then off again?

 

ppeetteerr: I've had the same problem in the past. Do a Search for magnifier and you should find some posts containing answers.

 

hello,
Yes, Ive tried turning off and on again, I have actually managed to close the magnifier a few times and close the pc but when I start the pc again as soon as I open a programme and use it the magnifier opens up again
Regards

 

Hello I think I have solved the problem. It seems the mouse can control magnifier. Go into Control Panel then Mouse and then close it from there. It seems to have worked
Regards

 

Magnifier should have a window open (with options) and you should be able to close it like any other application.

 

Which is your problem -- you don't know how to turn Magnifier off or you don't know how to keep it from reappearing? Have you tested your "fix" on the latter of those two yet?

Hi

click Start -> All Programs and check the Startup folder right click magnafier and click delete

OR


Control Panel -> Ease of Access -> Optimise Visual Display


Then uncheck "Turn on Magnifier" and reboot.

 

Yes, that does it!
