Steam DPI Scaling not working right with Windows 10

[[GT] TGW]

I have steam installed on a windows 10 pc and up until today the steam client's size scaled the way I wanted it to by enabling "Override high DPI scaling behavior. Scaling performed by: Application". When this option was disabled steam would scale to a really big size. I use a 1920x1080 TV screen for my pc so I needed to scale windows size to 150% in settings. If I set it back to 100% then Steam's size is fine but the rest of my pc becomes really small. Steam didnt have any problems until the most recent update that I did which is now preventing me from scaling steam the way it used to scale to even though I enabled the override high DPI scaling option in properties. Can anyone please help me out this is really frustrating me?

NOTE: this problem is only regarding the steam client itself all the games I have in steam work fine

Steam DPI Scaling not working right with Windows 7, too (since the last Update).

This issue is back with the latest update. The option you've pointed out only makes the interface larger. The interface is fine. The web page is zoomed in way too much.

The Issue exists on Ubuntu Linux too.

For some magical reason, change the windows 10 system interface language back and forth fixed the issue for me. Probably that reset some position cache or whatever? No idea how that work.

I found a workable solution for me on Win10 @350% DPI scaling, res 3840x2160/55" 4k TV.

Steam settings:
Interface: at scale with windows on/checked;
Library options to "large" -

Windows:
Right click on the steam icon on taskbar, right click again to get to properties (or you can simply go to the steam.exe and right-click =>properties) then choose compatibility tab:
Set "compatibility mode" to Windows 8;
Press the "change high DPI settings" button further down on the menu:
Check\enable "Program DPI" box using the "I open this program" selection.
Exit Steam and re-launch.
*I also check to run as administrator to circumvent having to enter in my pw every time.

This works really well when you truly have a high scaling setting and use the Windows scaling option in Steam client - preventing it from having giant non-functioning windows/window elements taking up considerable space. It leaves the text at a legible size and the window elements are not bloated to oblivion with unmovable horizontal scrollbars; keeps everything within the size of the window. Hope this helps someone else who uses gigantic DPI and 4k TV as monitor; such as myself - it took years to find the right combination to make it usable again. :)

This works with the default skin. I imagine it would work for custom skins as well although I haven't tried it with the custom skins I have installed (metro & plexed).

Thank you so much! I was so mad that Steam just sh!t the bed with high scaling STILL in 2023. We shouldn't have to go through these extra steps, but I'm so thankful that I can finally use all of the popup menus and whatnot that were just completely broken before.
