    Hi Marie

    Stupid me!!
    Trying to resolve your problem, I ended up with the same problem.

    How ever what I finally did was Ctrl\Alt\Del then Lt. click the Red "X" in the upper left corner of magnifier.

    HI mopar
    I tried it but no luck, funny though I did not give up and found the fix go to start menu, programs, accessories, ease of access, ease of access center, make computer easier to see, then uncheck the turn on magnifier. It worked. I hope this helps someone else.

    Sorry about that. But it did work for me last night but when I booted the computer today it was back.
    What I found this time was if you put your pointer down at the lower left corner of the monitor a little box opens click and magnifier goes away

    Happy you got fixed up.

    Hold Windows key, press U. This will bring up Ease of Access Center.
    Click on Make the computer easier to use. Remove checkmark from Turn on Magnifier
