CryptoCrack works with screen resolutions up to 2560x1600 but appears to cause problems on higher resolution screens. A possible work around is to try the following:
Right click on the CryptoCrack.exe file. You'll find this located in a folder at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\<random_folder>\<random_folder>\cryp...exe_ ... Make sure you use the latest dated folder to ensure you have the current version.
Select the Properties from the menu
Click the Compatibility tab
Click the Change high DPI settings button. This will open the window shown opposite.
Select the Override high DPI scaling behavior checkbox.
Make sure Application is selected from the dropdown list.
Click OK to save the change
This has not been tested as I don't have a high resolution screen. If it doesn't work just repeat the instructions and deselect the checkbox. If it does work let me know so I can inform others.
