The solution is to "futz with the per-application and overall DPI settings" (note the "and"!). Source: this archived blog post by a developer of MSKLC.
In other words, try at least one of the following:
- "Control Panel" → "Display" → "Set custom text size (DPI)" → change the value a little bit
- Right click on MSKLC.exe → "Compatibility" → modify DPI settings

This is a very old and outdated software, dating from 2007. – harrymc – 2019-11-26T20:12:25.937
@harrymc It's quite old but as far as I know not outdated, it's fully functional. According to the blog post, the problem described here is the only major known one. I'm not aware of better alternative software. If you are, let me know.
