Woah, easy there 😅
Can you give some examples, of measurements, and what value you expect?
I'm guessing you have set a 150% scaling for your display, can you confirm that? If true, that's the reason: the ruler measures actual pixels. Note that a display scaling is different from changing the screen's resolution.
