    Force fullscreen games to in window mode?


    Hi, I have a few games that don't offer window mode in the options.

    Is there any way to force the games to play in window mode instead of fullscreen?

    Going to .exe's properties checking the compability doesn't help either.

    Any ideas on what I can do to fix this?

    Use the NVIDIA Control Panel to do so.

    My solution.

    Right click desktop icon;
    Click "Properties";
    In the target line, go to the end and hit the space bar and put "-w" without the quotations.

    No more full-screen.
    To go back to full-screen, change the "w" to "f".
