Windows Taskbar or Xbox Overlay bar keeps popping up while playing game in Full Screen(windows 10)

  • When playing game in full-screen, if user moves mouse cursor to the top of the screen or to the bottom of the screen at any time. When user is given menus such as like the inventory window or the barrels inventory and or anywhere that the player gets a menu Focus will be brought to the Xbox Overlay bar and or Windows Taskbar. It has gotten worst recently.
    Confirmed it is not a video driver issue as already cleaned installed video driver
    Was told once that this is how UWP built applications and or games are built. It is more of a security measure that apps don't have full access to hog a screen view. Thus giving the users ability to exit out of the application if the user did not want the application to have full screen. Also to prevent malicious applications from having full-screen ability.
    Has anyone else faced this issue and what did you do to fix it?

    Sample Video of what happens as this other player experiences the same thing.

  • @stormyseadog sucks doesnt it?

  • @aod-fluid Yes greatly mostly during PVP battles

  • IT'S BEEN YEARS AND THEY HAVEN'T ADDRESSED THIS. It's gamebreaking at the moment. Just like the doublegun/doubleshot exploit.

  • Ahoy maties!
