My Skyrim automatically minimizes to a black screen or alt+tabs for some reason(s) VIDEO CLIP FEED
So as the title says some of those happens and i have got a video feed when it happens so could anyone help me or know the reason for this? You can watch the video in/down here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pV0csPmr80&feature=youtu.be

I have tried it without my antivirus and it's not the problems what is causing this. I have out of ideas.. I don't press nothing so i wonder if why i even started to mod my Skyrim because all i get is issues :/ This is really annoying and thinking of giving this whole game up.

microsoft did something they thought would upgrade the alt-tab expierence, then Nvidia and amd did something that causes crazy crap to happen when you alt-tab, the work around they recommend untill it's resolved is running all games with antialaising off and in windowed-borderless mode

Someone told me a while ago that if you are ever alt tabbing out of Skyrim, to open the console and then do it. Does that change anything for you?


I didin't do that for myself. It does it automatically unfortunately.

either way, auto minimizing usess the same route as Atl-tab, kinda like automatic, or manual transmission. try the fix, see if ti works for you.

I have owned the game since 11/11/11. the game does NOT autominimize on win 7 or win 10. you have something running that is grabbing screen focus.
try booting your system using a "Clean boot" then run game. if the autominimize stops, then one of the stopped startup processes is doing it.

Yea, it is other programs that take more priority. That is why you should try OneTweak, it allows you to run in one window, and Skyrim will not do what you say is the games fault.

Add one monitor more and run Program monitor on that and you will find out what other program Windows runs when you are playing. You will be suprised.

It's some of the ENB files which are causing it i'm pretty sure.
