Game would Alt Tab at random

★★ Newbie

When playing Jedi Surviour my game alt tabs out of the game randomly. I would have to click on the game again to continue playing (I play on PC with a controller). 
It happens every 20-30 mins during my playthrough. I tried updating my GPU and Verifying my files on Steam. 
Is there any way to fix this?

Hey @mad_marynate,

This usually means that there's another program active in the background that constantly wants to take the fullscreen. Maybe you can check if every unnecessary program is fully closed before playing the game, to see if that fixes it?

I've also started getting this problem the last few days, & nothing has changed in my system config. I think there might be some kind of issue with the game here.

 

That said, I was able to stop this from happening by switching the game to Windowed Fullscreen rather than Fullscreen so @mad_marynate you could try that & see if it fixes.
