Force 100% DPI Scaling for all screens even if the default value is different

Force 100 DPI Scale.ps1

# =========================================================================================================
# if you like to reset your DPI Scaling to the DEFAULT, you can use the registry (Option five) from here:
# https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/5990-change-dpi-scaling-level-displays-windows-10-a.html#option5
#
# But, since the default value is different on various monitors, if you like to force 100%,
# you need the following trick:
# for each monitor - set DPIValue to 0xFFFFFFFF (which is -1 in DWord)

# -1 == 0xFFFFFFFF in DWord == 100% DPI scaling
# 0 = default setting of the screen (can be 125%!)
# 1 = default settings + 1
# 2 = default settings + 2
$dpiValue = -1
