This question already has an answer here:
Is there some way to decrease folders/icons size in Nautilus 3.18?
5 answers
I applied some pending updates this morning, and after restarting all the icons (desktop and file explorer) were huge:
I tried changing the zoom settings in the file explorer to small, but that only makes them a bit smaller (still huge), I also tried messing with the dconf Editor, but that does nothing.
I also tried
DISPLAY=:0 dconf reset -f /org/compiz/
unity --reset-icons
setsid unity
but no luck, still the same.
How can I set everything back to normal?
I'm using Ubuntu GNOME Metacity desktop and arc dark theme

Which one did you try? Doesn't <ctrl>+<-> reduce icon size?

Ahh... then unfortunately you'll have to recompile nautilus as per this answer, probably no other option.

I get an error when doing configure: No package 'gail-3.0' found I tried apt-get install libgail-common and gail-3.0 but that doesn't seem to be the right package, do you have any idea how to install gail?

I used the steps here to downgrade nautilus to 3.14, and I'm never ever updating anything again, because everytime I do it something in Ubuntu breaks (last time was grub).
