CTRL + Mouse Wheel = ZOOM
I use a 4k monitor and everywhere I go on the web, I press ctrl and scroll my mouse wheel and the text and images on the screen get magically bigger...but not on the Steam client. Nope, no way to make things larger to more easily see and click the purchase button on my awesome monitor. That would be too much trouble for Valve. Anyone have any workaround except rummaging through a junk drawer for an antiquated magnifying glass?

I have no idea what that means, but I have a feeling it makes me a moron...

Please ask steam suggestion and Idea's for increased accessablity or what words they call it now.

Yep, Changing the Windows Font Size works really well too. Thanks! ...So that's what the purchase button looks like...huh...

OP make own post about its not about Font alone, its increased accessbility and they should have done this years ago use what windows already do.

"Anyone have any workaround except rummaging through a junk drawer for an antiquated magnifying glass?"

Let steam get the point.
