If image scaling is switched on globally, it affects the Windows Apps, and Start Menu has odd artifacts (app icons are pixelated).

I switched from DSR to custom resolution since image sharpening is now attached to the new feature. The higher output resolution, blurring, and sharpening combined looked so good.
