I'm having an issue with full screen games on my Windows 10 PC. Whenever I start a game, the screen goes black for a few seconds and then it minimizes to the desktop. When I try to click back on the game, it often goes black and minimizes again. Sometimes it works on the first attempt, but other times it takes several tries to keep it open. I've already used DDU to completely remove and reinstall the graphics drivers, but I previously had the same issue with an Nvidia GPU. I've tried different versions of the drivers, but nothing seems to fix this. My setup includes a Ryzen 7 78000X3D CPU, Radeon 7600 XT GPU, multiple monitors, and a drawing tablet. I even recorded a video of the problem happening: [link to video].

First thing to check is whether your graphics drivers are up to date. Sometimes driver issues can cause games to minimize unexpectedly. Also, make sure that your Ryzen 7 78000X3D is set as the default graphics processor for the game. And don't forget to check your monitor’s settings; setting the refresh rate to the highest possible might help, too. Good luck!
Drivers are up to date. Just found the default setting in AMD Adrenaline and enabled it. I'll see if that helps! Unfortunately, my monitor doesn't have a refresh rate setting.
