I have since having looked at another post.
Problem with high dpi scaling monitors - UE4 AnswerHub (unrealengine.com)
Solved 4K Scaling Win10 Unreal 4.26.0 with Sharp Text and Sharp Demo FPS using alt + p
Before starting double check your settings and make sure these settings are changed first before applying the method.
Right click on the Unreal Engine “Shortcut”> Properties > Compatibility. UnCheck the box for “Override high DPI scaling behavior.” And yes, uncheck is correct for what we are going to do.
Open Unreal Engine > you may select a new project or current one you have > Click on Edit > Editor Preferences > Make sure “Enable High DPI Support” is Checked.
General > Performance > “Disable DPI Based Editor Viewport” is Checked.
Go ahead and Close Unreal.
Method Setup :
Right Click On Your Desktop and Select Display Settings
Left Click On Your 4K Monitor it should be labeled 1 or 2.
Scroll Down To “Scale and layout”
Click On The Drop Down Menu For “Change the size of text, apps, and other items”
Select 300% Recommended (My setup works with 300% which is the recommended yours might be different but use your own recommended.
Click on “Advanced scaling settings”
“Let Windows try to fix apps so they’re not blurry” Switch This To “OFF” and close the window.
Open Unreal Engine > Click on “Window” at the top left. Click on Developer Tools > Widget Reflector > Application Scale: Change from 1.0 to 0.8 and hit Enter.
Now your Windows apps will be correct size plus Unreal Engine will be correct size with non blurry text and also do alt + p for the FPS demo and that should be sharp as well.
I hope that helps some of yall. I thought something like this would be fixed by now.

This excellent. I would add that my Red Eagle monitor says it supports HDR and 144 HZ.
It’s on an Nvidia GTX 1050 and the Windows profile was set for 60HZ, I don’t know how I didn’t change this earlier now I can go to with 150% as I am on a 23-inch monitor
The last entry deals with UE and Win 10
I have noticed that the Enable Editor Support for HDR Monitors.
I forgot to enable 144hz Refrsh in Windows 10, which I have done now.

Finally I tried on the 4K UHD at 300%, but gone back to my 23 inch 4K with 150 %.
I agree it would be better if UE5 was -enablehighdpi all the time and worked, but we just have to try different ways
