If a program or game requires displaysurface.dll, then Windows will check for the .dll file before launching the program. If any issue is detected, it will display an error and the program won't launch. A few examples of the errors are:

This application failed to start because displaysurface.dll was not found. The program can't start because displaysurface.dll is missing from your computer. There was a problem starting displaysurface.dll. The specified module could not be found. The file 'displaysurface.dll' could not be loaded or is corrupt. Setup cannot continue. The code execution cannot proceed because displaysurface.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem. displaysurface.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vender for support.

I recently purchased a new Yoga 2 Pro with a gorgeous 3200 x 1800 display. My main purposes for this device was to do some heavy lifting on the the road with many of my professional applications. I was quickly discouraged when I first fired up Fireworks, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, and Illustrator to find that I needed a magnifying glass to see simple menu options.

Now comes the fun part. You will just have to copy your manifest file to all of the application folders that you would like to change the scaling on. For example, Photoshop.exe is located at: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit) and I created a manifest file in text editor named photoshop.exe.manifest to place in that folder.

Now place this file in the same directory as your executable. All of the ones listed above are are in pretty straight forward locations like C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe or C:\Program Files\Adobe.

Also, when I edit DWORD by changing it to decimal and I click OK, I go back to make sure it has changed and reverts back to Hex. Is this normal when I go back to the DWORD window, or is it supposed to stay on decimal?

Thank you SO much, this worked just right and you had excellent instructions. Shame on you Adobe, for making things so hard, but Bravo Bravo to you Dan for helping us all in such a simple way, when one considers the immense headache this has been giving SO many people.

Hi Dan, I just used the above to get my copy of Photoshop CS5 to look right on my new 4k screen HP. However, the bridge software that comes with it still looks like ants and I didnt see a link for it. I also cant find the program files for it by following the same path as above. Can you help?

Thank you for this tip. This sounds like a great solution for the programs mentioned, but will it work for other apps with similar scaling problems (like Microsoft Streets & Trips and Quicken)? If so, do I just rename the manifest file and place it in the same directory as the corresponding executable file? Are any other changes required in the manifest file.

I just got my Dell xps 15 and ran into this frustrating problem, I had given up all hope until I found this solution, so thank you! I did notice that I had to reboot my system for the changes to take effect, so if anyone is not seeing it work right away, definitely try restarting.

Figured out that I needed to specify in windows that Notepad should be used to open the Photoshop.exe.manifest file. For any newbies like me = save it as a .txt file. Fixed it just fine. (Sorry, new to registry edits)

I am wondering for the adobe programs with space in the name ei: after effects, flash builder, content viewer, media encoder, widget browser, premier pro

Do you name the file aftereffects.exe.manifest

Or

after effects.exe.manifest

thank you so much for this now i have got my adobe working. However i just cant get it working on autodesk maya at all, do you know where exactly should i place the file and what name do i need to change it to? thank you

1) If the app launches properly. There is something wrong with the external manifest procedure.

2) If the app runs the same error as with the manifest file. There is something wrong with your applications install.

Mac is either also lagging behind, or Adobe is. I am a digital illustrator and graphic designer. I have had NO problem using Adobe software until now. I have been using Illustrator and Photoshop since Illustrator 88 and Photoshop 1, and I use CS5.5 about 12 hours a day.

I use a 27-inch monitor in both cases. The older iMac is set to 19201080 and still looks sharp. Unfortunately, reducing the monitor resolution on the higher-res Retina monitor creates distortions and halos, so that is not an option and I had to leave it alone.

Brad S., yes the software is old, but they still sell it. CS6 clearly has a bug in that it reports being DpiAware when it very evidently is not. If nothing else, Adobe could fix that flag in their CS6 applications so that this work-around their error was no longer needed.

This setting should definitely be off. I had it on so I could drag windows to a regular monitor (LoDpi?) to read them when necessary. (When it is off, Windows downsamples so that the LoDpi physical sizes match the HiDpi, making them even less readable.) Turning this on disables the font scaling done for non-aware apps on HiDpi screens.

Brad S., yes the software is old, but they still sell it! CS6 clearly has a bug in that it reports being DpiAware when it very evidently is not. If nothing else, Adobe could fix that flag in their CS6 applications so that this work-around to compensate for their error was no longer needed.

Awesome work Dan! Is there text within the manifest file that can be changed to tweak the resolution even more. Your solution worked great for me but now the menus and fonts are just a bit TOO big in my programs (Yoga 2 is set to 32001800).

Wow. Can I buy you a beer? Works perfectly for me with Windows 8.1 with a brand new 38402160. You took a brand new laptop that was useless to me in one of its most important functions and made it feel like a value. Thanks

I could implement this fix and am very very happy about it. Thanks a million. I attempted doing the same for Illustrator(x64) but got the following error:

The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. . . .

This fix worked great for photoshop, but I was having problems getting it to work on Illustrator.

After several tries using the Illustrator.exe.manifest file, I just copied the photoshop.exe.manifest file to a Notepad file and called it: illustrator.exe.manifest

Then looking where to place it was also tricky. I finally found similar application files as shown in the photoshop example under the following for Adobe Illustrator:

OS (C):

Program Files

Adobe

Adobe Illustrator

Support Files

Contents

Windows

I placed the (illustrator.exe.manifest ) notepad file in the Windows file ( you will see many files with the .dll extension there) and opened up Adobe Illustrator. Now both Photoshop and Illustrator are viewable and much more easy to work with. I hope this helps others to use this very helpful solution.

Thank you very very much.

I made my research article figures using illustrator on my Dell XPS9530 and had very hard time with the screen 32001800 and no scaling, but your instructions really helped me, I wish I found this website earlier, but still.

Thank you very very much!
