Effects Gallery interface extremely tiny on 4K resolution screen - Windows 10. No fix for it.
Using the latest version of Adobe Illustrator. I've just bought a brand new Dell XPS 15 it has a 1050 NVIDIA Graphics card, Windows 10 and a 4K screen. The interface is extremely tiny. It's usable but the effects gallery is too tiny to use.
I'm not sure if this a "bug" per se, but none of the fixes available online work (this included creating a Prefer External Manifest file and code for the Illustrator executable file). What I've read says this is a problem Adobe needs to address.
I'm extremely disappointed in this. What can I do to fix the interface?

Please fix this. It is frustrating that computers that are used for quality visual can't see what they're doing.

After upgrading to Windows 10 on a Dell XPS 8930 with dual high-res monitors, I've discovered I now have a very tiny (= unusable) Adobe Illustrator CS6 program.

My gosh. I just spent a fortune on a new 4k pantone validated laptop and I have to use a magnifying glass to use the filter gallery. What the hack Adobe?

It's hard to believe Adobe doesn't address this. Please put it to the top of your bug list to fix asap!

The effects menu is really small compared to all the other drop down menus on a 4k Screen

Effect Gallery Panel UI not scaling on 4k display! It is the panel under Effect -> Effect Gallery. It is unusable on a Dell XPS 9560 with a 4k panel. It is too small. How can I solve this? This is unacceptable.
I checked also on other computers and the problem happens on every pc that has a 15"/17" 4k panel.
You need to fix this NOW.

Same here! This is UNACCEPTABLE. The entire effect panel is UNUSABLE on my Dell XPS 15 9560 with a 4k panel on Windows 10.

The Effect Gallery panel (the one under Effect -> Effect Gallery) does not scale up at all on my Dell XPS 15 9560 with a 4k panel. I set UI scaling to max in preferences, but nothing changes. Set Windows UI scaling to 200% or more, but nothing changes. This is UNUSABLE. Please fix.
I am using a Dell XPS 9560, Windows 10 Home 1803 Build 17134.590.

This is absurd. How can such a detrimental problem go unaddressed? Adobe should be embarrassed. You sure charge enough to rent your software, now how about making it usable.
