My Minecraft Crashes when i put it on fullscreen

Hello yazan_zx 13,

Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.

It sounds like you are having trouble with Minecraft crashing when you put it on fullscreen mode. To better understand your situation, I would like to ask you a few questions:

- What version of Minecraft are you playing? Is it the Bedrock Edition or the Java Edition?

- How are you launching Minecraft? Are you using a disc, a digital download, or the Xbox Game Pass?

- Have you tried updating Minecraft to the latest version? If not, please do so and see if the problem persists.

- Have you tried adjusting the video settings of Minecraft? If not, please try lowering the resolution, brightness, render distance, and other options that may affect performance.

Here are some steps you can try to fix the problem:



- Make sure your graphics card drivers are up to date. You can check this by going to the manufacturer's website and downloading the latest version for your device.

- Adjust your graphics settings in Minecraft. You can do this by going to Options > Video Settings and lowering the resolution, render distance, or other options that may affect performance.

- Try running Minecraft in windowed mode instead of fullscreen. You can do this by pressing F11 or going to Options > Video Settings and toggling the fullscreen option off.

- If none of these steps work, you may need to reinstall Minecraft or contact the game developer for further assistance.

Hey coco, sorry you're having trouble with Minecraft! I understand how annoying this type of issue can be.

Just so you know, troubleshooting mod issues is outside the scope of Xbox forum support. Since the issue started after installing mods, I recommend contacting the mod creator or checking the mod’s community for further assistance.

The issue is likely caused by a conflict between the modded version of Minecraft and your system’s graphics settings or display drivers, especially in fullscreen mode. Mods can alter how the game renders, which may cause freezing or display issues that persist even after reinstalling if configuration files aren’t fully reset.

Hope you can get this sorted out soon! If you have any other questions, you're always welcome here.

Hey Kathy,

Four things:

1. I used to record using the xbox gamebar, and it worked perfectly, why does it not work now?

2. I do not think I can choose fullscreen borderless in Minecraft (if I can please tell me how to)

3. I don't even think I know what fullscreen borderless is, unless it is when the taskbar and the menu bar on the top show (which can be done using the F11 key in Minecraft Java Edition)

4. If putting my Minecraft Java Edition into F11 mode is fullscreen borderless, then the recording works, but I hate seeing the taskbar and menu bar while playing my video games

Thanks

I disabled both the Nvidia overlay and the Xbox Game Bar, and all seems to be working now. It seems that when you take game out of Fullscreen, it crashes.
