When I set BF1 into full screen it completely freezes my game, I can't alt tab or get into task manager.Only solution is to restart my PC by the reset button.I have tried the following things to solve it.- Deleted BF1 folder in my documents.- Updatet GPU drivers.- Disabled origin in game.- Completely removed BF1 and downloaded/installed it again.Am I the only one having those issues? Someone who can help me?

I was able to "fix" it.Changed my resolution to a lower then 1080p, started game in windowed mode. Changed game mode to full screen in settings, and selected 1920x1080 as resolution within the game.Apply the settings, and enjoy 🙂 You can change back your windows resolution to the original. Seems like BF1 isn't the only EA game having this issue 🙂This post helped me.http://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/W10-Creators-Update-broke-fullscreen-mode/td-p/5983995/page/4

Do you have the creator's update installed? Many players report uninstalling the creator's update solves many of their gaming issues.

Doesn't work either.
Game works fine in windowed mode, but freezes when I go to full screen.

Yes, creator update is installed
And no, I am not going back to a previous version of windows as I can't rollback anymore.
Creators update is out for months now, BF1 should be working on it by now!
