Why Change the Size of the Menu Bar?

- Select System Settings from the dropdown menu.
- Scroll down and click on the Accessibility option from the left pane.
- In the accessibility preferences, select Display from the Vision section.
- Under Display section, you’ll see an option called Menu bar size.
- Change the default option to Large by clicking on the radio button.
