I want to permanently turn off the mobile admin interface, which I find incredibly annoying. What file do I need to edit to turn off the mobile admin interface?

This question is not about WordPress themes.

The solution is to edit /wp-admin/admin-header.php and search for "device-width" and change it to something like this:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=1024">

This allows you to see the unadulterated WordPress admin interface on your tablet or phone. No more jumbo-size letters.

    This might solve your issue, but it is really a very bad idea to modify core code. Your changes will be lost if you upgrade wordpress
