Native FullScreen Mode in UWP PC games

Hi iGnGr,

Welcome to Xbox Community Forum. Thank you for sharing your concern with us today and we hope that all is well.

We understand that you are looking forward to have all Universal Windows for PC games to have native full screen. Let us check on this together and sort this out in timely manner.

We know how convenient it would be if the games were displayed in uniform/native full screen especially for variable refresh rates. However, Microsoft policy states that Universal Windows apps must have identical functionality of complement each other across devices. Some developers may code their app to be identical while other may choose to create complimentary apps. The same rule applies to games as this will depend to style, functions that the developer envisions the game to be published.

We believe also that the gamer's plea should be addressed and have this feedback sent to the right people is what we can do for today.

Kindly send your feedback to the game developer - you can find information specific to your game by going to the title’s product detail page in the Microsoft Store, or to the game developer’s website.

You may also use the Feedback Hub - How do I give feedback on Microsoft Office?

We join you in the hope that this will be part of the next update for gaming experience for UWP. If you have a different concern kindly create a new thread using this link.



Sincerely,

My gaming pc specs:

msi mpg z390 gaming carbon pro ac

i9 9900k 3.6oGHz

32GB ram

Gtx 1080Ti 11gb

resolution 3840 x 2160 on Sony bravia HDR 55" tv.

So Yesterday evening I somehow was able to play the game windowed fullscreen and temp stayed around 55c degrees. So Its when its in fullscreen mode where the problem is. Only thing is I accidently got it into windowed fullscreen mode so I have to figure
out how to do that again!

Same issue with 30fps cap in fullscreen mode. Game is installed through gamepass/Xbox for PC app and will only give 60 fps running in windowed mode. Maximizing the game window also drops the fps from 60 to 30, no matter the resolution. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

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.

Definitely not true on pc games are actually running a true native resolution on xbox most games have 2 options a performance mode that is not native 4k running at 60hz and a resolution mode which is 4k 30hz my 2060 can run games on 4k 30fps ray tracing on some of the resident evil remakes do your research stop defending xbox and the poor performance
