Adobe flash player text too small

The adobe flash player in an Pearson homework assignment is too small. When I resize the page, all the other words get bigger except for those in the adobe flash problem. It has worked in Internet Explorer and in Firefox on other computers, but not my new computer. Is there something specific I can look for to fix this?

Does your new system have an UltraHD display?

The Flash plugin does not scale correctly with higher-than-HD displays. This is not a new issue, but it's not something you would know about before buying a new system unless you thought to search for it.

For example, from about two years ago: Playback controls on YouTube and other video players are tiny (Yoga Pro 2 at 3200 x 1800).

For another thread last year, I discovered possible fixes involving other Adobe software, but I didn't find anyone applying this idea to the Flash player plugin or, if appropriate, to Firefox's plugin-container.exe process, so I don't hold out a lot of hope:

Another recent thread discussing that possibility: Windows 10 scaling problem

I do have the UltraHD. Sadly it seems like there is not much I can do about it at this point. I do not feel up to trying what Dan did.

Thanks for the info.
