.NET Form Size Scaling Issues

I've created a small form in Visual Basic .NET. However, when opening the form, I've discovered that when the form's size have been set to a small size, like 67, 67, the form's window often becomes stretched.

I thought this was a high DPI scaling issue, as I'm using a high DPI screen, so I opened the application release file's Properties > Compatibility > Change High DPI settings and selected "Override High DPI scaling issues, scaling performed by Application" and I believed that it would solve the problem as usual.

However, I noticed that this did not fix the stretching of the form as I thought it would...

How can I fix this issue so that the actual form's size isn't stretched and reflects the form's size shown in the designer? There are some supplementary screenshots included below...

Try setting the size in the form loading event. It worked for me.

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    Me.Size = New Size(67, 61)
End Sub
