Re: All the benefits of Windowed & Fullscreen mode combined
 
I've played a couple of games with this running for MBT and for anyone who prefers fullscreen mode ----just the game showing with no taskbar who has the little "stuttering " anoyances while running game fullscreen mode this gets them what they want and the game runs as if it's in windowed mode ( which it is....they just hide all the normal "Window" trappings ). The only issue and it's extreamly minor ...is , for me on my machine..... the area on screen where the taskbar would normally be is black making the normal message area there twice as big as normal..

As well, I don't ever "Alt-Tab" out of things but this allows "Alt-Tab" to reveal the taskbar when needed with no problem at all. (which is why that space is left at the bottom of the screen ) I have found no down side to running this program with the game and I'm getting used to "Alt-Tabbing" if I need to do something else which is why I stickied this thread and copied it to both forums.:up:

I found about this thread yesterday. I installed the app this morning, and I must say I am veeeerrrry pleased with it. The WinSPMBT scenario I am running now is going on like a breeze. (Belated) Thanks for the heads up!

(Windows 10 x64 here.)

RightDeve & All concerned,
I'm running the latest Win10 Home 64bit on my laptop & it won't work for me. When BG is enabled it shows the start screen windowed & rest of screen bright white. Totally CHEWED UP.

It works fine still, for me at least.
Windows 10 Pro latest, 64 Bit (shouldn't matter, I reckon).

One thing I noticed, you said "Start Screen". Does that mean the screen for setting Windows/Fullscreen, GDI/DirectX, Mouse Sensitivity, etc? Or are you actually in-game already?


When setting up Borderless Gaming for the first time, I always make sure I'm already in-game before applying the program (the game) to the right hand side of Borderless Gaming (the "Favorite" group).

Also might wanna check the newest release of Borderless Gaming if that makes a difference.

Try removing it then re-installing. It works OK for me when I use it ( which is rarely and only to test )

Ok reinstalled then forgot how to get it to work. Figured it out working again. Thanks.

Re: All the benefits of Windowed & Fullscreen mode combined
 
Figured out why it quit working, I had it set to start at start up but did not have it in the tray. So since I seldom restart and since I did not have it in tray it wasn't actually running.
