Re: Apex legends keeps minimizing.

I figured out the problem!!!! For me it was that my aspect ratio and resolution was not set as (native) you might have changed it then closed the game next time it opens with that aspect ratio and resolution it will cause the game to auto minimize when you try to put it to full screen mode. Hopefully this fixes it!!

    I think that I found a fix that works for me at least... For Discord users, try disabling the Discord Overlay for games, that seemed to fix the problem with minimizing for me. I haven't had any issues with the window since I disabled the overlay, I manage to even tab through other windows and back to the game without any problems. If you don't have Discord, check if you have any other software that has in-game overlay of it (could be the issue) .

  • Here we are mid 2021 and I am yet to find a solution to this problem. I am thinking about reinstalling windows and just going ham on this system.

    LG OnScreen Control software cause this issue with 100% repeatability. I have to terminate it every time I launch Apex.

    Not only with Apex, some other games minimizing too. And I have only one monitor...
