Keyboard locked to game
When i run my game which i just recently reinstalled on a computer that can more than handle everything, it locks my keyboard to the game and doesnt allow me to use the keybindings i have for muting ...
Forum Discussion
OBS is just the example i used, it is also locking out discord and my windows hotkeys other than alt+tab. the problem for the last time, is with the game and not the other programs as they have all been checked throuroughly before coming here to post and ask.
If your friends is working fine and it is not a key bind conflict with keys like with the CTRL key as that key is hard coded for certain commands
Maybe boot up under a clean boot https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows-da2f9573-6eec-00ad-2f8a-a97a1807f3dd incase some other program overlay is causing issues
I do appreciate your patience and help do not take anything I say or have said in the wrong way I am just getting frustrated.
The thing that is bothering me the most, is even after trying to boot it in safe mode and unistall and reinstall and every single step. Every time I open the settings it has 3 options for fullscreen exclusive mode, Fullscreen (fullscreen exclusive mode), Windowed (fullscreen exclusive mode), And Windowed-Fullscreen (Fullscreen exclusive mode). Now as far as I am aware fullscreen exclusive mode means keybindings that arent part of that game wont work. there is no way to disable fullscreen exclusive mode and the problem is 100% that and not some other magical fix im going to get by booting my game from administrator mode on some other profile... the problem is in the coding of the windows... so do i find a mod to fix that and unlock the window? because booting my machine in 100 different ways that i have already done isnt gonna change the fact that it says Exclusive mode on all of them.
Rant over... nothing directed at anyone but this stupid Exclusive mode that is the only form of the window i can have open.press the alt + enter keys a few times to change mode
otherwise do the below
Press the [Windows] Key + [R] at the same time
Copy the following in to the text box and press ok
%localappdata%\swtor\swtor\settings
Open the client_settings.ini file in notepad and ensure the following are displayed within
Fullscreen = false D3DFullScreen = true
Check NativeHeight, NativeWidth, Height and Width ( all 4 ) match your monitor resolution.
Save and close the file.
Start the game as normal.
Change graphic settings within the game as desired.
this should be fullscreen (window) mode
never heard of a listing of exclusive mode is that displayed in the game ?This is what i see in game, all three options when highlighting say what version of Fullscreen Exclusive mode do you want... i did try changing the settings but im still coming up with the same issue
ahh didnt know that had been implemented
quick google
Right click or press and hold on the EXE file of the app or game, and click/tap on Properties.
2 Click/tap on the Compatibility tab. (see screenshot below)
3 Check (disable) or uncheck (enable - default) Disable fullscreen optimizations for what you want.
4 Click/tap on OK.I set this option and when the launcher runs it removes the option, i watched it happen actively it shut off the checkmark as i clicked to open the launcher
It also keeps disabling compatability mode when i launch it, and turns off run as administrator every time as well
what OS are you using ?
Windows 10 pro 64bit
ok support confirmed they are removing these at present on launch, more so for the compatibility modes was causing no server list for some
they are working on a hotfix so this functionality should be restored very soon, if that is causing you the issue shall see
