Why is my browser zoomed in?

As others have also had an issue with, everything in my chrome dropbox broswer window is zoomed in to about 500%.   I've cleared the cache, logged out and back in, etc.   This has been happening for about a month at least.    Ctl - does not work.   I'm on a windows computer with the latest version of chrome.   It is infuriating.

    Hi cle38393092, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    Have you tried clicking on the magnifying glass in the URL bar, and resetting it to 100%?

     

    Did you reset all your Chrome settings as well in the browser?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

    That isnt anything to do with Dropbox - that's something on Chrome. 

     

    You can Zoom out by clicking on the three dots at the side and choosing 100% if needed

      I tried that first thing of course.     There are multiple other instances of people having this issue in the forum but I have not found a solution.

        As the Dropbox site doesn't change your zoom preferences, there isn't much I can suggest on this end.

         

        Does the site appear normal in another browser? Have you completely reset the Chrome browser?
