Minor question - Intel Graphics Control Panel on laptop screen too huge .....

This is a tiny question,

on my Windows 10 laptop, the control panel is giant,

I like to leave it open all the time because different websites,

and especially online photos  and maps, have different ''brightnesses and contrasts''
so I am adjusting the control panel brightness and contrast for
different stuff as I go back and forth---(along with the laptop's own  brightness)
pretty annoying, right .....


so my tiny question :  is there  a way to make that
giant control panel smaller ?
so I don't have to often Minimize it out of the way...


I know this sounds really picky of course,
but we all have our little habits that we've developed over
years online and this is one more small
annoyance that happens everyday 
thank you!

Hello targetpool, 



Thanks for the information provided. Based on your request, I recommend you try the following:


1. Try the steps from this Microsoft article:

2. Set the Intel® Graphics Command Center (Intel® GCC) as an app that will start minimized from the Windows settings:

  • Open Windows setting>search bar>type "startup apps">select the Intel® Graphics Command Center (Intel® GCC).


Let me know if the issues persist.

Thank you for checking back...

Well.... You're first suggestion = 
(https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/add-an-app-to-run-automatically-at-startup-in-windows-10...)

doesn't work, because it's not an app. It's the on screen control panel from my Intel graphics card-

I open it by right clicking on the screen desktop and choosing

"Intel Graphics Settings"


the second suggestion,
(Open Windows setting>search bar>type "startup apps">select the Intel® Graphics Command Center (Intel® GCC).)

Intel® Graphics Command Center is not listed in the list


again, it's not a big deal, I appreciate your help
