Resolution/Fullscreen 4k display at Windows 10 *DPI issue*
I have a 4K display and play games at 1080p, but the fullscreen doesn't work, no resolution work with fullscreen. Only nativ 4K works, everything lower not.

It seams the game try to make the fullscreen but don't make it right. See the screenshot: https://picload.org/image/rorggcgo/snip_20170113191140.jpg
Borderless window is the same, nothing change
Did you need more?

I know now that's the issue is, it's the DPI scaling from Windows 10! There is a tool called "XPExplorer - Windows 10 DPI Fix", you can change the scaling back to the old Windows 8.1 and now the game runs in fullscreen with the same settings at 1080p on my 4k display.

It seams Microsoft know about the issue, but there is no fix from Microsoft. Maybe another people have the same problems or will have in the future and this can help.^^

This is the website with the tool: http://windows10_dpi_blurry_fix.xpexplorer.com/
There is also a version 2.2 which supports 4k on http://www.softpedia.com/get/Desktop-Enhancements/Other-Desktop-Enhancements/Windows-10-DPI-Fix.shtml#download
