Here’s a Windows hack to fix the DPI scaling feature issue with Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Simply add this registry entry in this .reg file or add it manually with the following:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionSideBySide]
“PreferExternalManifest”=dword:0000000

Then simply copy paste the manifest file(s) for either Photoshop, Premiere and/or Illustrator into their respective installation directory; then restart the application to see the result. I tested this on Windows 10 Home with the anniversary update.

For Premiere Pro CC 2014 you’ll have to go to Compatibility Settings and disable ‘Display scaling on high DPI settings‘
