Battlefield 5 Fullscreen not working
Fullscreen will not work anymore. After updating my Nvidia driver from 416.94 to 417.01 and switching from DX12 back to DX11 Fullscreen is no longer possible. Everytime I open up the game its starts in the upper left corner of the screen. Pressing Alt+Enter (the way the game usually toggles in and out of fullscreen) won't work. Going into the video options menu, the game automatically and without doing anything asks me wheter I want to keep the changes. Furthermore choosing Windowed/Borderlesss/Fullscreen hasn't helped a bit.
Restarting of PC, Origin and or Battlefield did not work. Reinstalling (clean) the driver or switching between both drivers has not worked.
Anyone got a similar problems or any ideas on how to fix it? (Again borderless mode is a quick but very unsatisfactory fix)
System: GTX 1060 3GB, 16GB DDR3 RAM, I7-2600k @ 4x4,5Ghz, Windows 10
Hey @grandpa85,
Sorry to hear about this.
Here are some other steps you can try:
1. Clear Origin Cache: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/clear-cache-to-fix-problems-with-your-games/
2. Manually Uninstall/Reinstall Origin: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/origin/origin/manually-uninstalling-origin/
3. Repair Game Files
4. Run Origin and the Battlefield V exe as Administrator
Try these steps, then try going into your Video settings and see if you're able to switch to Fullscreen again.
Thanks 🙂
