Some old programs have issues when trying to adapt to modern operating system and hardware. Thereinto, some old games cannot be rendered in fullscreen due to either an intentional omission or incompatibility reasons, e.g.: games designed for 4:3 displays have black vertical bars on wide screens.

Better Fullscreen is a free and open-source tiny tool used to enable borderless full-screen mode when playing old and unsupported PC games, providing players with a more immersive gaming experience. It works by resizing the window of selected program to fit screen size.

Better Fullscreen also includes some extra useful features, such as prevent the screen from turning off in full screen mode, set a custom background color for full screen mode, customize keyboard shortcuts to toggle full screen mode, set a custom resolution for full screen mode, set a custom scaling factor for full screen mode, and can automatically launch old games in full screen mode. These features provide users with a more customizable and flexible full-screen experience.

Whether you want to make the most of your retro gaming sessions by stretching the games’ windows across your entire digital canvas, or you simply wish to create custom tiled layouts for multitasking more easily throughout your workflows, Better Fullscreen may be the right tool for the job. All in all, it can be a valuable tool for gamers, content creators, and anyone who is looking to improve their Windows full-screen experience or wants to have more control over the full screen experience.
