Windows 10: Did Windows 10 v2004 finally fix the exclusive fullscreen/FSO bug from v1903 in games like...

It's a well known fact among the PC gaming community that v1903 broke exclusive fullscreen ("Disable fullscreen optimizations"). It works for some games (Overwatch), but not others (Apex Legends). You know that it's broken when you can Alt-Tab really fast and you can see the volume control or keyboard layout switch popup appearing when you adjust your volume or switch layout (via keyboard shortcuts/media keys) while the game is in "fullscreen". Fake fullscreen introduces major input lag, no matter how much Microsoft claims that it's "better" - it isn't, the difference is night and day.

I would like to hear from someone who installed the v2004 update. Has it finally fixed this?

Windows 10 KB3213986 Update Cripples Multi-monitor Gaming

This should be enough to get the conspiracy theorists suggesting that Microsoft is intentionally crippling multi-monitor support in fullscreen mode since games sold on the Microsoft Store all work in the pseudo-fullscreen mode...

Or it could just be an idiotic bug that will be fixed in time.

 

Manually rendering IME candidate list bugged(for fullscreen game).

Given I'm making a game based on Winforms and SharpDX. The game will run with exclusive fullscreen mode. Then I have to render the candidate list of IME manually in game, just like what WoW Classic do.

But unfornately, It just bugged, there's no candidate list(or no candidate changed event) in most typing(I'm using the default Chinese IME os provided, Microsoft Pinyin).

Then I made a project to reproduce the bug:

.Net Framework version: ryancheung/WindowsForms.IMEHelper

.Net Core 3.0 version: ryancheung/WindowsForms.IMEHelper.Core

Actual behavior:

It does not emit IMM.ImnChangeCandidate event on every correct text composition of Chinese Pinyin.

Expected behavior:

It should emit IMM.ImnChangeCandidate event on every correct text composition of Chinese Pinyin.

It's no conspiracy theory. They hate PC gaming.
