Hello,

I've recently started to play some old(er) videogames on my PC.

Some modern games have the option to 'Mute Audio in Background' and it's usually on by default. This is NOT what I want, I multi-task 24/7 when playing videogames. I always play on fullscreen windowed (BORDERLESS), when available. I need my cursor available on my second, third and fourth monitor nearly all the time.

I tried using DisplayFusion's function 'Prevent Window Deactivation', however this LOCKS my cursor to either the game window, or my monitor (not sure which) even though there's a seperate function to 'Lock/Unlock Mouse Cursor to Current Monitor/Focused Window', which I haven't touched.

Can I somehow KEEP my game's audio playing when I ALT+TAB (A.K.A. game window losing focus) so that I can also freely move my cursor to my other monitor? If not, do you know of a program that can do this? Thanks in advance! :D

UPDATE: I just noticed that if I ALT+TAB out of the game and I keep my cursor on the monitor the game is on, then the audio still is running on the background, however, as soon as I click on a monitor the game is not in, then the audio is muted.

You can try using our "Prevent Window Deactivation" function on that window, but many games block our hooks so it may not work.

Thanks!

Again I already did and I don't want it t to lock my cursor. Dev(s) should focus on unblocking hooks then.
