Form Font Scaling in Apps Installed on Windows 7-How To Stop?

I have an application programmed in Visual Studio and when installed on a Windows PC where the text is set to Medium or Larger, the text on my forms autosizes. Does anyone know how to stop the autosizing? I have tried changing the form option of AutoScaleMode to None along with other things but the text continues to autosize. If anyone could tell me how to stop this that would be great.

The Windows font size setting is under Screen Resolution, Make text and other items larger or smaller.

Did you turn off autoscaling at control level as well? Is it winforms or WPF app?

It's a windows from application. And the controls are set to AutoSize = False. There is not autoscalemode property on the controls.
