    Windows Media Player taking itself out of full screen mode all on its own


    I recently upgraded to dual 28" 4K Asus monitors. Now my 1080P videos are much smaller by default so I play them back in full screen mode. What I noticed is the player takes itself out of full screen mode at least once during playback and I have to restore the full screen mode. I just noticed this after upgrading my monitors as my old 1080P monitors did not require going into full screen mode as they took up practically all the viewing area by default when opened. I got no virus warnings by my antivirus program and see no strange adware in Programs and features. Any suggestions? This behavior

    :)
