    High DPI settings for Game Pass Games?


    Games downloaded with game pass rather than bought seem to be locked down on my pc so I cant make changes, which is usually just fine. But how do I access the .exe properties in order to change high dpi behavior? I play on my PC from my couch and have
    the display at 300% as recommended by windows. But now when I open up a game its so huge, most is off the screen and the simple adjustment for this is in the .exe properties. How can I get to them to fix this? Thank you

    :)

    Keyboard and mouse

    Most "Gaming" mice have an exceptionally high poll rate and DPI resolution, which isn't properly supported in some games yet.

    If your mouse came with a configuration software that allows you to change the DPI sensitivity or the Poll rate, try to set the mouse to a lower DPI and poll rate (125Hz poll rate is recommended).

    If you are unable to change the poll rate or DPI sensitivity, then you can't use that gaming mouse on the Xbox One yet.

    If you really need a dedicated Xbox gaming mouse, wait for the official Xbox One Razer gaming mouse, or simply get yourself a cheap office/business mouse instead of an expensive gaming mouse.

    Logitech g pro superlight acts weird on xbox series s

    It sounds like the mouse's DPI is too high. Note that this mouse is not officially supported on Xbox consoles. It relies on software to configure the DPI and other settings. However, you can save DPI settings to the mouse's onboard memory, then the settings will take effect on all devices.

    To do this, you will need a computer and the Logitech G Hub app. Do you have access to a computer?

    Thanks,
    Kyle

    Permission to allow users to link games and create mouse profiles

    You can use the keybinding in game but mouse profiles suffer from not being able to use them unless you manually select them. I know I like to have a super high dpi for my desktop setting but not for shooter games.

    DPI Setting changes in game - MW3

    Hello steven barron,

    Welcome to the Microsoft community.

    Thank you for contacting us and describing in detail the mouse DPI issue you are experiencing with your Modern Warfare 3 game. Understanding that this issue is impacting your gaming experience.



    In order to better diagnose this issue, I'd like to ask if this issue only occurs in the Modern Warfare 3 game, or does it happen in other apps or games as well?

    If this issue only occurs in Modern Warfare 3, then it may be a game-specific setting or compatibility issue. If the issue also occurs in other applications or games, then it may be a mouse or driver issue.

    If you have any other questions, please contact us

    Best wishes

    When I downloaded the Star Wars Jedi : Fallen Order game and tried to launch it, it said issue with the game setup. How do I solved it

    Hello Kruez C,

    I'm Nilay and I'll be glad to answer your query today.

    Before playing for the first time make sure you have Origin installed, an account setup, and you remember the password. In your Origin directory, right-click on EALink.exe. Select Properties. Select the Compatibility Tab. Click the Change High DPI Settings button towards the bottom. Check the box near the bottom for Override high DPI scaling behavior. Select System from the drop down. Click Okay. If you have a high DPI monitor and you don't do this (or haven't and are stuck) you may not be able to play the game as the Origin link gets stuck in a fault loop.

    I'd recommend you follow https://answers.ea.com/t5/Other-STA...our-game-s-setup-Please-reinstall/m-p/8458169 this official link and suggested steps by fellow gamers.

    Good Luck
    Regards
