Windows 10: Ease of Access Settings

Overview

Setting up Windows to make it more accessible takes only a few steps. Most Ease of Access options are available in Settings. Select the Start button, then select Settings > Ease of Access.

Visit Microsoft's page on Ease of Access for more information. 

Options

Commonly used options are also available from the sign-in screen. Select the Ease of Access button in the lower-right corner to see them.

Ease of Access options can help make it easier to:

  • Use your PC without a display. The narrator lets you hear audio descriptions for elements on the screen, like text and buttons.
  • See what's on the screen. Make the content on your screen bigger using Magnifier, or use high contrast mode.
  • Use your keyboard. Turn on Sticky Keys, Toggle Keys, Filter Keys, or the On-Screen Keyboard.
  • Use your mouse. Change the pointer size, or turn on Mouse Keys to use your keypad to move the mouse.
