I toggle the function to prevent deactivation, the sound plays but alt-tabbing still sends GTAV to the taskbar minimised.

EDIT: I had a thought after I posted this, the game requires Rockstar Launcher for DRM reasons, I also set this to prevent deactivation and now it works as needed ]]> RE: Using ALT + TAB when playing GTA 5 https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/using-alt-tab-when-playing-gta-5/?ID=3709cec4-8e23-47bc-a2fa-824a5385fbd2#2 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 15:46:23 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/using-alt-tab-when-playing-gta-5/?ID=3709cec4-8e23-47bc-a2fa-824a5385fbd2#2 DisplayFusion Hello,

We have a function called "Prevent Window Deactivation". If you assign that to a key combination, and press it while in game, you should be able to alt tab without minimizing it.

Hope that helps! ]]> Using ALT + TAB when playing GTA 5 https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/using-alt-tab-when-playing-gta-5/?ID=3709cec4-8e23-47bc-a2fa-824a5385fbd2 Wed, 18 Nov 2020 10:47:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/using-alt-tab-when-playing-gta-5/?ID=3709cec4-8e23-47bc-a2fa-824a5385fbd2 DisplayFusion Hi!

While I playing GTA 5 on my secondary screen, when I use the ALT + Tab combination, the game minimizes. What I want is; The game does not pause and minimize when I somehow return to the main screen while playing any game on the secondary screen. Likewise, the game shouldn't switch to window view mode either.

How can I do this with DisplayFusion? Thanks for your help in advance! ]]>
