I have a simple AutoHotkey script that will force this mode for me. The script removes the window border and title bar of any window, and moves the window so that it fills the screen:
^!f::
WinGetTitle, currentWindow, A
IfWinExist %currentWindow%
{
WinSet, Style, ^0xC00000 ; toggle title bar
WinMove, , , 0, 0, 1920, 1080
}
return
The hotkey this creates is Control+Alt+f. It applies changes to whatever window has focus. If you wanted to use this script, all you'd need to do is:
- Install AutoHotkey
- Copy the script to a text file and name it something like
MaxFull.ahk
- Right click on your new script and use
Run as Administrator
.
Note that you'll need to have your game in windowed mode, set to your desktop's resolution. Also change "1920, 1080" to whatever your resolution is. Press the hotkey and bam! Maximized Fullscreen goodness. It even toggles back and forth if you press the hotkey again.
While the hotkey works on many games that I've played, some games are stubborn and don't want the window border removed. In that case, I have another hotkey that is a bit more forceful.
^!g::
WinGetTitle, currentWindow, A
IfWinExist %currentWindow%
{
WinSet, Style, -0xC00000 ; hide title bar
WinSet, Style, -0x800000 ; hide thin-line border
WinSet, Style, -0x400000 ; hide dialog frame
WinSet, Style, -0x40000 ; hide thickframe/sizebox
WinMove, , , 0, 0, 1920, 1080
}
return
Simply append this to the previous script to enable the hotkey Control+Alt+g.
Update: Some games also use a 0x40000
"ThickFrame" style, which the script wasn't removing until now. See the AutoHotkey documentation for a list of styles that can be removed.

if you playing on windows 10 you may have to go into the Minecraft Launcher settings and fix this issue or just re-download the version. If you are playing on Mac devices and it goes transparent there is normally a system update that could cause the issue, backup your worlds then get the system update.
Edit: also may be your Graphics card and what version you are playing on.
