Windows 10: Screen Resolution Changing to Lower Setting

I developed an App using Visual Basic 2010. Compiled, packaged and distributed it. The app is working well on most computers. But on some Dell Inspiron 13 7000 series notebooks with Windows 10, the moment my app launches (ONLY MY APP), the screen resolution automatically changes to 640 x 480. Also note that other laptop models (Dells, HPs, Lenovos etc) with windows 10 that are running the app are working perfectly fine. Anyone with such an experience.

1366 X 768 is the recommended screen resolution

• You can change it according to your requirements.
