Menu
I am using the latest version of NetBeans and I need to increase the font size of output and menus(Not the code part). I tried:
netbeans_default_options=".... --fontsize 16"
But the IDE doesn't startup when I add this to netbeans.conf. Please help me or I would go blind :D

The toolbar icons in NetBeans can be shown in a smaller size. We have to go to View | Toolbars and then select Small Toolbar Icons. To get the bigger icons back we simply deselect Small Toolbar Icons.
Right click on your Netbeans shortcut (C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\NetBeans) and select Properties. Go to the Compatibility tab and then select Change High DPI Settings. From there, check the Override High DPI Scaling box and set it to System. Save this answer.
You can change the font and size for the code in the editor, either globally or per language. Go to the Options window, select “Fonts & Colors”, and tune the fonts and colors to your liking.
On Windows 10 editing netbeans.conf (appending the --fontsize 16 to netbeans_default_options) normally should work (at least, it works for me with the latest NetBeans). Another solution is to start netbeans.exe with --fontsize 16 option. For instance, having a shortcut to NetBeans on a desktop, you can modify it in the following fashion: right-click on the shortcut, click Properties, select Shortcut, append to the target line --fontsize 16.

Go to the bin directory where Netbeans is installed. Generally the defualt is : C:\Program Files\NetBeans <version>\bin. Now through Command Prompt start netbeans by: netbeans --fontsize 14 --console suppress. By using --console suppress you can close the cmd window, without affecting the netbeans window.
