Hello!

I have a big problem with memoQ 2014.

I tried everything: changing the display resolution, scaling, but nothing worked.
Can somebody please help me? Thanks.

…I would delete the respective subdirectory (MemoQ) of the user settings directory.

I have the same problem with memoQ 2015 on a Windows 10 Zenbook with an HD resolution. Changing the resolution does not fix the issue. Due to the fact that the interface is messed up and part of the options/buttons are not visible, MemoQ is unusable on this machine. Luckily, I use this machine only when I am traveling. Still, I would love a fix for this.

Can you please help me, where do I find that?
I use a Microsoft Surface Pro 4, if that counts.

What counts is the operating system installed. Ask their support or in any forum dedicated to your device. I have no idea.

This is most likely a scaling issue for high-DPI devices Jun 29, 2019

I had the same problem. I have an Asus Zenbook with high resolution screen and I fixed this issue by right clicking on the MemoQ desktop icon and then:
Memoq icon -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Change -> click the "Change high DPI settings" button -> check "Override high DPI scaling behavior, scaling performed by:" -> Select " System (Enhanced)" option in the box below.
