Chrome tab font too small

I'm having this weird problem with chrome since this sunday. As you can see from the image, my bookmark and tab font are insanely small, does anyone have any clue why?

I tried googling for this but nothing worked. I'm on Windows 10 by the way, font size set to 100%.

As I can see in your screenshot, Chrome has switched to a different typeface (different from Segoe UI) to render the labels. So, I conclude you are affected by issue 531265, which is currently under investigation.

Right click on your desktop and click Display Settings.

Display Settings Dialog

Then drag the slider to the right a bit until the text is to your liking.

change the size of apps text and other items on the screen

I had this issue on my Macbook Pro's bootcamp partition.

I had a similar "freaky"problem happen to me when I was tidying up my bookmarks bar on Windows 7. The font was the usual size at first then all of a sudden the font size shrunk before my eyes. All I'd been doing was highlighting and selecting text to delete bookmarks. I clicked out of the bookmarks page - everything else was okay. I clicked on the three bars symbol in the top right hand corner (if you hover over it, it says customize and control google chrome). I Left clicked and read down the list - it said zoom 100% so I thought everything was okay. But when I clicked on text just on the bookmarks bar page it said zoom was 50%. I changed it back to zoom 100% and the bookmarks bar and text displayed normally again. Why did it happen? I read on a different site that if you accidentally press control when your cursor is pointed at a font it can change the size or type of font on that page. Maybe this has happened to you.

Go into chrome://settings

Press 'Show Advanced'

Find this:

Web Content Settings

Change it to something that looks good.
