Just as quick refresher, you can zoom in and out in a variety of ways, including: - Pressing and holding the Ctrl key, and then rotating your mouse wheel up and down. - Pressing and holding the Ctrl key, and then tapping the + and - keys. - Using pinch-to-zoom on your laptop's touchpad, just like it was a touchscreen. (Place two fingers on the touchpad and either move them closer together or farther apart.) - Using pinch-to-zoom on your laptop's touchscreen — if it has one. - Digging into your program's menu and looking for "Zoom in" and "Zoom out" options. That's a lot! But, however you prefer to zoom while using your web browser of choice, you can press Ctrl+0 (hold down the Ctrl key and press 0) to go back to the default, normal zoom level. This shortcut works in web browsers like Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Mozilla Firefox. It may work in some other applications, too — but it'll work on web pages in any browser.
