Windows 10 full screen fix?

[Desocrates]

i can't get full screen and i'm looking for a way that will actually fix it

[King Nerevar]

Just change the resulution ingame to ANY resolution u want.

[Desocrates]

i've tried that a few times but it doesn't work for me

Try running the game in Windows XP compatiblity mode. For some reason Microsoft thought it was a great idea to change how full screens worked in old programs. Compatilbity mode should turn it back. Go to where Morrowind is saved and find its EXE and right click it and go to its properties. you'll find the compatility tab there. That should do it.

ok thanks for helping i'll try it tomorrow

[Desocrates]

do i have to do anything after changing it because i've just tried it and it didn't do anything

You need to go to Options in the game launcher (not in-game) and change the mode to Full Screen.

[Desocrates]

i've done that too

[Desocrates]

can something put an exact walkthrough on here just in case if somehow i'm doing something wrong

Try running as administrator.

And if that does not work, install MGE XE and configure the settings there.

Sorry to bring back this old arse thread to existance but wanted to thank @Emma for the solution for me, only stayed in fullscreen once then after restart (modded with MGE XE etc) it would go back to window maxium size of 1280. So thank you!
