    That's the problem. Most AAA games use entries in the registry to function. (PvZ being one of them). A virus that you must've gotten cleared all the data in there. Without that data the game will freak out. Your best bet, is to delete the folder "PopCap\PlantsVsZombies" from your registry and re-install the game. If this works please give me XP, and let me know. 😉

Hi @imichaelll,

Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PopCap\PlantsVsZombies\

You'll see a line called Window Mode + a string of number + (0)

Change the (0) into ⚽

This should allow you to launch the game in Fullscreen again.

Let us know if it worked.

    There's nothing in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PopCap\PlantsVsZombies, is no key where to change the fullscreen value.... I really need to play in full window because windowed mode is to small ☹️
