The setting that controls that font is global to your machine, it changes
the font everywhere!
Right click the desktop>properties>appearance. Navigate to advanced
settings>in the box marked item, scroll to 'Icon'>change the font.
Warning!! Do not Bold the Font, or your messages will not mark as read.
HTH?

Right click a blank spot on the desktop and choose Properties | Appearance.
In the Item drop-down box (you may have to click Advanced to see it) choose
Icon. Change the font or size and click Apply.
