Borderless Windowed Vulkan Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I turn on borderless fullscreen?
Press F11 to toggle borderless fullscreen mode on and off. Your game will expand to fill your entire screen without window borders while staying in windowed mode.
Will my game minimize when I click on another window?
No, that's the main feature of this mod. Your game stays visible and running in the background even when you click on other applications or switch to another monitor.
Can I use this mod without the Vulkan mod?
Yes, the Borderless Windowed Vulkan Mod works completely on its own. It's designed to work well with Vulkan, but you don't need it installed to use borderless fullscreen.
Why does Discord screen sharing look choppy with fullscreen?
Exclusive fullscreen mode can cause Discord screen sharing to appear laggy because the game takes over your display completely. Using this mod's borderless windowed mode fixes that issue.
What happens if I press F11 really fast multiple times?
This mod prevents crashes that can occur from rapidly toggling fullscreen. You can press F11 as many times as you want without breaking your game.
Can I use this with multiple monitors?
Yes, you can move your mouse to another monitor or press Win + Tab to access other applications while your game stays open and running on your main screen.
Does borderless fullscreen affect my game performance?
Borderless windowed mode may have slightly different performance characteristics than exclusive fullscreen, but this mod is optimized to minimize any impact. Results depend on your system and other mods.
Will this mod work with other fullscreen mods?
This mod is designed to replace traditional fullscreen functionality, so using it alongside other fullscreen-related mods may cause conflicts. Test compatibility with your specific mod setup.
How do I disable the mod if I want to go back to normal fullscreen?
Press F11 to toggle borderless fullscreen off and return to your previous display mode. You can also disable the mod entirely through your mod manager.
Does this work with alt-tab and window switching?
Yes, you can use alt-tab and other window switching methods freely while in borderless fullscreen mode without the game minimizing or losing focus.
