How to Enable or Disable Full-Screen Optimizations on Windows 11/10 [Guide]

Microsoft, wisely, continues to improve gaming performance in Windows 10 & 11. One such optimization is Fullscreen optimizations, or FullScreen Exclusive (FSE), which was created to give the application or game you are running full control of your desktop and display. If your application or gaming isn't running properly, you can enable or disable Fullscreen optimization.

Microsoft wanted to create the best gaming experience possible, so they enhanced the current Full Screen Exclusive (FSE) mode by creating Fullscreen Optimizations. Fullscreen Optimizations was designed for gamers to experience the best aspects of both FSE and borderless windowed mode, allowing games to take up the entire screen, run at full speed, support fast alt-tab switching, and support for overlays.
