Many applications are designed in such a way that they can run in multiple windowed modes. These are full screen, full screen and resize modes. Each of them is designed to facilitate the use of a particular application. Movies, for example, are better watched in full screen mode; it is more convenient to work with text documents in full screen mode. As for small applications, the best option is to work in a mode with a resizing of the window.
Instructions
Step 1
Visit the game settings. You will need this to switch to windowed mode. Go to graphics settings. There, find the item "Windowed Mode" or "Display in Window". If you are playing games in an Internet application, press Esc to exit full screen mode to windowed mode. If, on the contrary, you want to run the application in windowed mode, in the lower right corner of the application, find an icon with arrows pointing diagonally in opposite directions.
Step 2
Press Alt + Enter or Ctrl + Enter to switch to windowed mode when watching a video in the media player. If this keyboard shortcut is not the most convenient for you for some reason, you can change it in the player's settings. Go to "Settings", then "Configuration" and select "Keyboard". Find the full-screen mode function and change the keyboard shortcut to the one that suits you best, but keep in mind that this combination should not be repeated with others that cause the player to turn off or start other functions.
Step 3
To switch to the mode with the possibility of adjusting the window size, click the button depicted in the form of a square in the upper right corner of the application. This method is applicable to everyday applications such as word processing, office programs, etc. After this step, you can adjust the size of the window. To do this, move the mouse cursor over one of the corners of the application window. You will see your cursor change from a regular arrow to a double-headed, diagonal arrow.
Step 4
Hold the cursor on the corner of the window and drag it to one side or the other, depending on whether you want to increase the size of the window or decrease it. To maintain these dimensions, set them in the application launcher. To do this, right-click on the application shortcut and go to the "Window" tab. Set the desired dimensions in the appeared field.
