Hey guys, I’m new to the game. Its my first time buying a Battlefield game on PC and its been pretty buggy. My big issues are those in the title. I can’t minimize the damn game (borderless windowed) when I play.

Furthermore, when I launch my game, the window is about half the size of my screen. I have to switch to windowed mode, then back to borderless for it to work. Has anyone run into anything similar?

Running in full-screen is not an option for you?

Regardless of if it is or is not, try pressing ALT+Enter with the game open.  
(In full-screen that toggles between full-screen and windowed (about half the screen size.)

Have you tried using full screen mode instead of borderless?

I tried this and, while it didn’t solve the problem, it definitely helped me be able to minimize and resize the window quickly. Thanks!

Do you have teamviewer or other remote control software? Had the same issue with BF3 turned out it was teamviewer messing things up.
