I assume you have tried hitting "ALT + ENTER" ?!
Are you playing in Windows 10 ?
At what resolution is your screen ?
Also handy website for fixes and troubleshoots:

For me: I'm playing in Windows 10 at 1920x1080
ALT + ENTER swaps between full screen and windows mode.
This is the "modernized version" (or at least should be on steam)
and there is no menu where you can select the resolution of the game,
but you can set the ratio "16:10 / 16:9 / 4:3", and some other effects.

thank a lot for your answer, yes alt+enter switches from windowed to "full screen" but the upper bar remains, it is what bothers me (i should have been more precise at the start).
I am playing on windows 10 in 16;9 and tried 16;10. Resolution is 1366*768.
I will look for solutions on the site you advise.

Thanks again for you answer !

Are you playing on a laptop with Intel Graphics by any change ?
(1366*768 made me wonder that)
There appears to be an issue with non-borderless.
I found some info about that on this page:

While searching for the solution in Google, this discussion appeared as one of the results. That's the reason for why I am posting it here. Please consider it as a gesture of gratitude.

OK,Here's the fix. I got it from the readme.txt file inside the installation folder.

Select "Properties" from the right-click menu of the game from your STEAM LIBRARY( read it again STEAM LIBRARY, not the installation folder) , and then "Set Launch Options".
You have to enter "FORCEBORDERLESS" into the box and click OK.

Now enjoy playing without that annoying top border!!!!!
