    Windows 10 randomly forcing me out of full screen applications.


    [COLOR=rgba26, 26, 27, 1]Ok, so first of all, I've went through everything I could find on the internet on how to fix this. I've run a complete virus scan on every file, and nothing. Nothing has worked. I doubt this will help either, but think of this as a challenge for anyone trying to help me. This issue just started happening, not right after any new installs this is why I'm so puzzled.[/COLOR]

    [COLOR=rgba26, 26, 27, 1]So, whenever I'm in a game full screen, it could be a Ubisoft game, Steam game, Epic game, etc... the game will eventually be forced out of full screen and will tab to my desktop. The focus of the computer will change to another application if I have one opened. I've timed how long in between it tabs out, but I haven't recognized any pattern. But I will say that this occurs around once every 20 minutes to 2 hours. And no, it's not me accidently hitting something on my keyboard or mouse, I could not be touching anything and it can still happen. Putting the application in borderless mode fixes the problem, but I don't want to leave this at that because whatever is happening in the background will continue.[/COLOR]

    [COLOR=rgba26, 26, 27, 1]I'm not very good with computers, so this is why I've come here to ask for help[/COLOR]

    [COLOR=rgba26, 26, 27, 1]Thanks[/COLOR]

    :)

  2. Windows 10 freezes randomly


    I had already tried turning off fast startup, to no avail.
    Will look at the list you provided, thanks. Hard to do when computer freezes on the Windows loading screen though. *Biggrin
    I had tried that as well... no result.

  3. Windows 10 freezes randomly

    Hi,

    To better assist you regarding Windows 10 which freezes randomly, please provide the following:

    • Which is the last Windows update build you've applied to the computer?
    • Are there any third party applications that are currently installed?
    Furthermore, we suggest that you do a BIOS update to your computer. Here are the steps:

    • Check the motherboard manufacturer's website to find the specific model of your motherboard.
    • Go to the computer manufacturer's website.
    • Look for the computer model that you're using.
    • You should find any available BIOS update.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Windows 10 randomly forcing me out of full screen applications.

    Windows 10 forced download

    I actually had a client call yesterday with an email problem. when I tried walking him through some steps, he says "Yeah, I don't see that there, but I think it's because it's updated to windows 10. It did that a few weeks ago. I came back in on Monday, and it said Welcome to Windows 10"..... I think I'd throw the computer out the window.
