The Magnifier is one of Windows 7’s great accessibility features. Most of us never need them: the Magnifier, the Narrator, the On-Screen Keyboard and High Contrast. But they are useful for those with impairments and for others in special situations. For example, if you have a problem with your keyboard you may find the on-screen one helps you out of a jam.

The Magnifier may be accessed via the Control Panel’s Ease of Access section. You can also start it using the keyboard by pressing the Windows Key + + (Win key image  and the plus key image  simultaneously.) It can be turned off using the Windows Key + Esc.

The Magnifier has three modes: full screen, lens and docked. You can change the magnification level and invert colors via the Options button image .
