  2. Games minimising to desktop randomly

    Has anyone encountered an issue where games minimise to your desktop randomly?

    I've done everything i can think of and have tried most suggested things online. the only way I've managed to resolve the issue briefly is when i re-install windows. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    The problem occurs in full-screen applications and is really frustrating even though the games are running perfectly.

    My Specs are - Win 10, i3-9100, gtx 1660 ti, 16 gb ram.

    I am trying to run the games on borderless which is fine but the sound and mouse drop out at random intervals.
