Resolution Issue
For some reason, when I have my resolution set to 1920x1080 the screen is zoomed in and I can't even click apply when I try to lower it cause it's too zoomed in to see. I've been setting my general computer resolution to 1440x900 and that at least helps me see the whole screen but I've never had this problem before and I was wondering if anyone had a fix for it.

I've also tried inputting the resolution into the launch settings but either I'm not doing it right or it's not doing anything.

1. Go to the game's install directory.
2. Right click on "This War of Mine.exe" and select Properties.
3. Choose the Compability tab, and tick the box saying "Run in 640 x 480 screen resolution".
4. Start the game and go into settings.
5. Choose the resolution 1600 x 900 (60 hz).
6. Exit the game, right click on your desktop and choose Display Settings. Change the resolution back to the suggested value.
7. Find the "This War of Mine.exe" file again and untick the box you ticked in step 3.
(The last two steps aren't necessary to run the game, but they restore your resolution to its former state and stops your computer from changing resolution every time you start the game.)

If it doesn't work then go to your screen resolution settings and set "Modify size text, applications or other elements" to 100% instead of 125% or any other percentage. Another solution is to go to the %appdata%/Roaming/11bitstudios/This War of Mine and delete the config.bin3 file. I hope it will help you :)

Found a solution from an old thread
"go to your screen resolution settings in Windows 10, and set "Modify size text, applications or other elements" to 100% instead of 125% or anyother percentage."
