Is there any way to make taskbar icons bigger in Windows 10?

Question

So after Windows 10 installation I've noticed that icons in taskbar became a significant bit smaller than they were in Windows 7/8 while taskbar height stayed the same, here's the comparison:

The reason for this is probably addition of the blue line below + some spacing for it, however for icons it results in almost 30 percent change in size which is a bit less than my comfort level at least currently. However the only option I've found is:

Which is of course making them even smaller. So I'm asking for any possible ways including registry hacks to make them bigger. I've tried some old hack which mentions MinSize registry value however it doesn't seem to affect the taskbar in Windows 10.

Answer 1

You can use 7+ Taskbar Tweaker.

1. Right click the title bar to go to Advanced Options
   
2. Under OptionsEx, set the w10_large_icons to 1

Answer 2

Install StartIsBack++, it has an option to use larger Icons.

Answer 3

To add clarity to the other answer relating to 7+ Taskbar Tweaker (http://rammichael.com/7-taskbar-tweaker-v4-4), to access the advanced options you will need to right click on the icon in the system tray and select "Advanced Options". Near the bottom of the list is "w10_large_icons". Simply right-click on the 0 beside it and modify it to a 1, apply the change and the icons will be reverted to their proper size. Note that this feature is only available in the beta version of the program at the time of posting.
