Visual Studio 2010 @ High DPI

Question

I know this has been asked before but I will ask it again.

I'm having issues on my Visual Studio 2010 in a High DPI 1920x1080 display, I already tried the Registry Fixed but seems not to work. I know I'm using a very later version of VS but this is the only way to battle compatibility on lower version of Windows.

What method should I use? Should I switch to VS2015, or is there any other way around to fix this.

This isn't a DPI issue. Your buttons' Anchor property is set to Bottom, Right. This will cause them to follow the bottom of the form when it is resized. If the grid control below them is anchored to the top it will remain in the same position, but the buttons are moved over/away from it in order to always remain a certain distance from the bottom.

Set the Anchor for your buttons to Top, Right instead.
