How to get back to a normal screen from Zooming...

[mike4lorie]

G'day, all... I bought a new computer when we bought this home last July, I also went from a desktop to a laptop... Just to I could sit in the living room, keep up with the conversations with my wife, and watch or listen to the television while online.

I have one problem, and it happened again while I was online here... But somewhere my BIG fingers hit some button and the screen zooms, and I don't know what to hit so the screen goes back to normal. Think it would be a lot easier than closing the window and reopening the window... Does anyone have any ideas?

Also, I got a laptop that the keyboard lights up when I type ... Is there somewhere you can get in the controls to make the letters stay lit a little longer... Oh, it's a ASUS...

So, just wanna say thank you in advance if anyone has any ideas...

Cheers~

Thanks, @kburra , Probably the same for windows 11... The only reason I even thought about it, it is because it happened again here, normally I am somewhere where I am not going back to right away... But thank you for the info...
