Borderless Gaming is a simple open source tool, which allows you to force full screen mode in any video game that only supports windowed mode, something relatively common in older games. Another great utility of the software is the ability to correct a very common problem in many PC video games, especially in ports of console games, which is the malfunction of the keyboard shortcut 'alt+tab'. Using this app, you will not have any more problems with those video games.

The way Borderless Gaming works is quite simple. When you open the program, it will instantly recognize all the applications and games that you have open at that moment on your computer, listing them in the left column. All you have to do is select the video game you want to enjoy in full screen and click on the right arrow. By doing this, you will move that game to your favorites and in a matter of seconds it will be in full screen mode. That's it. There is no need to anything else. That's all the configuration you need to enhance your gaming experience.

While playing full-screen games that can normally only be played in windowed mode is great, where Borderless Gaming really shines is when it comes to fixing games that have problems when using 'alt+tab'. Nowadays, it is quite normal to want to minimize the game screen to look at a guide, to reply to a friend via a messaging app, to set up streaming, or for anything else. But, unfortunately, there are games that simply do not respond to this keyboard shortcut or hang when trying to use it. Thanks to Borderless Gaming, we can solve this problem in one fell swoop. Why? Because the software will actually run the game in a borderless window, so you can multitask much more comfortably.

Borderless Gaming is a very useful gaming tool, which is especially recommended for users who often use two screens. By using this software, you will have no problems when it comes to having a video game on one screen and a guide on the other, being able to switch between both without problems, without fear of losing the progress of the video game. The program is also very, very light, occupying less than 5 MB of hard disk memory.
