Full screen exclusive is missing.

[Infinite萧瑟]

No overlay apps are working. Even when I use nvida app to put exclusive in the game it does not work the sam is with display resolution

this is a known problem all that this means is that there's another application running on your computer that is using full screen already. all you have to do is close that application and exclusive full screen will show up.

something is using fullscreen, when ever i have ghost enabled so my viewers can see where i am looking at. it uses fullscreen and whenever i start ghost in call of duty mw 2019, or mw3. it makes it so fullscreen exclusive doesn't show up. call of duty doesn't like things that use fullscreen. make sure game bar is disabled some times recording software and overlays can prevent fullscreen exclusive. you can try Win + Ctrl + Shift + B and see if that helps. some times the Operating System Prioritizing Another Window. stating that Fullscreen Exclusive is not supported because the operating system gives priority to another window. Ensuring that no other applications are taking focus and that the game is the active window can help. some overlays some times from steam,amd or nvidia,medal can cause it not to show up. in the end something is using fullscreen and it needs to be closed for it to show up.

Thank you. It is suprisingly that in this notpad file I have only this inside "

Some settings returned but exclusive is still unavailable

I got this same issue, even when no overlays are running. Tried the config file changes still, fullscreen exclusive is not available. Hope this gets fixed with a patch.

Happened to me as well, I’ve tried everything, disabling overlays, reinstalling COD and drivers as well, was working fine before the update but has disappeared since the season 4 update, glad to see that I’m not the only one 🤣

[Johnny Speaks]

[Fixed] in your task manager find Desktop window manager and set priority to normal, then find call of duty and set that too high, I did this and it fixed my issue! Hope it helps!

I'm having the same issue, i tried to fix the constant crashing in warzone from CTD literally 4 times in a single match. I reverted drivers and then fullscreen just vanished and i started getting the same message that something else is taking priority when nothing is running but COD. I did everything so far that was said to do in this forum hopefully there's a fix soon or there's another solution.

Does not work again(

[Johnny Speaks]

You might have to do it each time you play, I also figured out it was the nvidia app causing my issue, so when I end nvidia task it returns to normal. Idk man we’re just winging it at this point 🤣
