[SOLVED] FIFA 15 How to restore fullscreen after alt-tab (PC)

★★★★ Novice

Hi there.

I just want to share this trick I discovered.

When playing at FIFA 15 demo or the full game, alt-tabbing the game results in windowed mode. To restore fullscreen, just click on the window to make it active, then alt+enter. The game will flicker for a second, then fullscreen will be restored.

This method pretty works with every application.

 

Hope it helped!!

 

 

 

P.S.: Now, we are waiting for a way to remove those annoying black bars on screen, and play on REAL fullscreen (proud 5:4 monitor owner). And maybe, fix that orrible AA too Wink it's a shame I've to buy a new monitor in order to enjoy this game :/

@dan_persie11 apparently this seems to happen on 16:10 monitors. Do you have a 16:10 monitor? Also, are you running the game on your full monitor resolution?

This doesn't work for me. If I try to Alt+Enter to return to fullscreen, the resolution changes completely and I get a tiny playing window surrounded by black bars.

No, if u do it, you just get fricken black bars around the screen, AND, when the ball is kicked hard up the pitch, the fricken camera doesn't follow it!!!
