Display of MuseScore On PC Monitor
The display of MuseScore 3 on the PC monitor is corrupt.
It shows the screen in a GIGANTIC way.
The bottom is invisible.
Therefore one cannot click on one of the bottom line buttons like "OK", "NEXT", etc.
Using the [CTRL -] option doesn't work here either.
How to solve this problem and to get a "normal" display??

Which dialog in particular?
What Operating System, what screen size, resolution and scaling?

Every screen of MuseScore 3.
I have a regular HP monitor with a PC with Windows 10.
I am not a technician, I just use the PC to compose my music (all works published under my name - Henry Pool - at www.free-scores.com and all written with MuseScore, as of now more than 300).
With the same computer and the same monitor I NEVER had this problem before.

What size monitor (diagonal, inch) how many pixes (x and y)?
What version of MuseScore exactly?
I have a 'regular HP monitor' too, 20", 1600x1200 pixels, 100% scaling and no problems.

Probably 27.0 1920x1200 WUXGA 16:10 83.9 0.303
But I don't understand anything of this

I don't understand and you do, so, what must I do to correct the display on my monitor?

Well the resolution is high and the monitor small, so I think you are at the mercy of the mess high DPI support is in different operating systems. Marc Sabatella knows more about this. He might be able to explain to you better. I don't have a solution for you, unfortunately.

He will almost certainly read this thread during the next day, and reply if he has something to add.

No high DPI here, 83.9 is not high at all

27" @ 1920x1200 should be plenty. More that I have that that is more than enough (for MuseScore) already
Again: what version of MuseScore exactly?
Can you try reverting to factory settings? (see https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/revert-factory-settings)
Normally MuseScore can automatically detect your monitor correctly and everything just works, but sometimes for whatever reason this fails (a common case is TV sets connected by VGA). In suh cases, you need to start MuseScore from the command line with the option "-D nnn", where nnn is your monitor DPI.

See https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/revert-factory-settings#instruction… and follow up to step 5. Then type -D 84 instead of -F at step 6 and press Enter.

Yes I have Windows.
What is [-F at step 6]?
What are steps 5 and 6? Steps of what?

Click on the link I posted and you'll see numbered steps. Do everything exactly as in step 1 - 5, but do what I said instead of what you read at the page I linked to when you get to step 6.
In reply to Click on the link I posted… by Louis Cloete
I have tried it somewhat. Wasn't successful, probably because I don't the stuff very well.
Then I saw this: "Remember that resetting Windows 10 to factory settings will delete all personal files, apps, classic programs, and Windows settings."
If that is true, then that is NO good.
In reply to I have tried it somewhat… by hpoocl15
Where are you seeing that? No one is proposing setting Windows 10 to factory setting, only resetting MuseScore to factory settings, and the page linked to explains what this does and does not do (nothing even close to what you just described). But in any case, you aren't actually going to do even that, because at the end in step 6 you will use "-D 84" instead of "-F".
So you said you tried it "somewhat". Does that mean you did some of those six steps but skipped others? i order for us to help, you'll have to be more specific about which of those six steps you are having trouble with.
