    Hi, My display usually 16:9 is now squashed into 4:3 as of this morning. My display resolution is set at 1920x1080. It's a new-ish PC running Windows 11, with AMD Radeon Graphics. Any ideas what to try in order to reset to the right ratio please? Thanks

    How to prevent stretching Game's resolution in 4:3 to 16:9?

    I have a 16:9 monitor (1366x768) but when I try to change the resolution of Outlast to 4:3 (1024x576) it gets stretched to full display, kind of too wide.

    So, I would like to play it at 4:3 along with Black Bars on the sides. I used to know a method to do this using the windows registry editor, but now I seem to have forgotten it.

    Kindly help me out to remove the stretching of the game and to fit it in 4:3 on my 16:9 monitor.

    Thanks,

    .

    I have a monitor that needs to run 16:10 not 16:9 can this be done in Windows 10.

    Hi AlanWalsh3,

    Is this for a Laptop projecting on an External monitor or is this a desktop? If laptop, are you projecting as Duplicate, Extend or 2nd monitor only?

    16:9 is the new standard aspect ratio. You can barely see 16:10 (i.e. 1920x1200) nowadays that is why in Windows 10 Setting, most of the aspect ratios are for 4:3 and 16:9. If the 16:10 aspect ratios (280:800, 1440:900, 1680:1050, 1920:1200 or 2560:1600) are
    available from the list of Display resolution options, it means there is no way of setting it to 16:10.
