Minimizing or Crashing to desktop?

Got mods?

Have you been playing for a while or is this your first try at launching the game?

[Schwarzwald]

Just Minimizing i been playing for awhile yeah i have mods.

[ronr42]

After it minimizes can you open it back up? Or do you have to relaunch it?

[Schwarzwald]

I can open it back up the strange thing is ive been using the same mods for awhile no issues into today

[ronr42]

Since you can open it back up, it may not be a mod issue.

I still have Win 7 but if "Aero Peek"[lets you view your Desktop when you have another window or program open] still exists on Win 10, try turning it off.

A message is being sent to the fallout 4 window to minimize from somewhere. Check your system for malware and viruses.

Also your keyboard could be flaking out

A Temp fix i found that works is playing in windowed mode so far

All my games do that. Maybe Microsoft thinks you should go to bed.

I think the problem is in drivers of video card. You need to reinstall it with clean installation. Maybe it helps. Sometimes this glitch happend when the resolution of desktop and resolution of the game are different. And very rarely this happens with incorrect focus settings in Windows 10 and acceleration of the video card.

i fixed this by closing all razer associated programs running in the background and opening task manager and closing a task called CefSharp.BrowserSubprocess which i think is razer associated .
