Which version of IE?

Did you install any new software or do any updates around the time the problem started?

Did Windows do an upgrade/update to your IE? If so, it may have reset your preferences.

I’d only use IE as a last resort. I’ve probably used it 2x in the last year. Balmer is the anti-Christ.

I occasionally use IE9, but not 10 or 11.

You might check under VIEW for text settings, if 11 has that.

Before you start IE next time, ctr-alt-del and make sure all the Internet Explorer processes are terminated. A frozen process can prevent other processes from the same app from saving settings. Also... this is a long shot but it’s happened to me. Make sure none of your keys, especially the Ctrl key, don’t stick.

Do you have ‘automatic image resizing’ enabled?

It’s under ‘multimedia’ section in the ‘advanced’ tab of the ‘Internet Options’ under the “Tools” tab.

Also, be reminded that most changes made in options require the IE be restarted to take effect.
