I have not much investigated this as it just happend again:
On a Windows computer with high custom DPI scaling (150%) the GUI icons appear abnormally big. In Windows the start option to deactivate scaling on high DPI is set for XnviewMP.
Copied all data including ini file to new 0.94b2 folder and initially started 0.94b2. Result was that the icons were much bigger than before.
Then re-checked with old 0.93 installation that this one starts with normal size.
Copied ini file again to new folder and after that 0.94b2 started with icons icons appearing in the expected size.

It happend the first time when moving from 0.92 to 0.93b.xnview wrote: Thu Sep 26, 2019 6:02 pm so not a new bug, currently i use high icons when DPI scaling > 100%
Back then it seemed like the ini file was broken.
But now it happend again when moving from 0.93 to 0.94b2 and it looks like a bug: Initial start creates abnormally huge icons that remain even after closing and starting XnwiewMP again.
It was necessary to copy the ini file again and after that the icons were back to what they used to be.
BTW even regular they are too big. It seems that the option to deactivate scaling does not have any effect. Is that a QT problem? As this scaling costs a lot of space I would like to know if there is a way to manually reduce scaling further.

Weird. When switching to beta 3 there was no such issue. So I don't know what was the reason for the DPi glitch. It seems to be gone.
