Screen glitching when playing roblox on fullscreen

Thanks for fixing my game, it works on full screen now but another problem with Roblox when I'm on the Microsoft app is that I cannot use fullscreen sometimes. As soon as I turn on fullscreen, the game goes fullscreen for a second before returning to normal. can you guide me on how to fix it?

Its really random if full screen works or not

Edit : If i full screen while im loading in the game , it will work but im wondering if theres another way to go fullscreen while im not loading

Hello, rashed jamal

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

Greetings! It appears that you are experiencing display issues when running certain games in full-screen mode, but not in windowed mode. This issue can stem from a variety of factors, including software conflicts, display settings, or even hardware issues. Let's take a structured approach to troubleshooting that will hopefully solve your problem.



Step 1: Verify the game files

First, make sure that the game files for Overwatch are intact. Most gaming platforms (such as Blizzard's Battle.net) have options to verify or repair the game files.



For Watchmen on Battle.net, click on the game in your library, then click on the "Options" drop-down menu and select "Scan and Repair."



Step 2: Reinstall the Graphics Driver

Since updating the drivers doesn't work, try performing a clean install of the graphics drivers. This can help remove any corrupted files or conflicts that a simple update may not fix.



Download the latest drivers for RTX 3080 from the official NVIDIA website.

Use DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) to completely remove the existing driver in safe mode.DDU will ensure that all parts of the old driver are removed.

Install the downloaded driver.



Step 3: Check Display Settings

A mismatch between the display settings of the computer and the game can sometimes cause problems.



Make sure the resolution of the game matches the native resolution of the monitor.

Check if the refresh rate in the game settings matches the performance of your monitor.

If you have multiple monitors, try disconnecting the secondary monitor to see if the problem persists.



Step 4: Full screen optimisation and DPI settings

Windows 10 and 11 have a feature called Full Screen Optimisation that sometimes interferes with games running in full screen mode.



Right-click on the game executable (Overwatch.exe) and select Properties.

Go to the "Compatibility" tab.

Check "Disable full-screen optimisation".

Also, click on "Change High DPI Settings" and tick "Override high DPI scaling behaviour". Select "Applications" from the drop-down menu.



Step 5: NVIDIA Control Panel Settings

Adjusting some of the settings in the NVIDIA Control Panel will also help.



Open the NVIDIA Control Panel.

Go to Manage 3D Settings > Program Settings.

Find or add Overwatch in the list of programs.

Set "Power Management Mode" to "Preferred Maximum Performance".

Set "Vertical Sync" to "Off".

Thank you for your time and effort in resolving this issue.



Best regards

roblox does not have true fullscreen mode same as a lot of games these days, it is actually borderless even if you select fullscreen, so the task bar will always appear at the bottom if the mouse moves down there.
