So yeah, I can't keep the game running.

Hello.

I am struggling to play the game since the very moment I start the game it gets on full screen BUT it blinks back to the desktop. Then I maximize the game and it blinks back to the destktop.

Over and over again.

Is there a way to fix that? Is there a way to play the game windowed rather than full screen?

Hello Mack!

I'm sorry to hear that you are unable to launch the game. To resolve the issue, please try the following workaround:
- Force Windowed Mode
The game doesn't have a built-in setting, but you can make it run windowed:
Edit the config file
Go to the game folder (usually: C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Prince of Persia The Sands of Time).
Open the file pop.ini with Notepad.
Find the line Fullscreen=1 and change it to Fullscreen=0.
Save the file and start the game. Please let us know the results.

I opened a lot of files trying to find said line but couldn't find anything remotely similar. If just the different resolutions the game already has, but all of then having a '(fullscreen)' message next to them. Tried to changed it to 'Windowed' or 'Window' but it breaks the game to the point it can't open afterwards.
