Windowed resolution changed.
Not sure if this is a bug, but still annoying as hell.
I have a 4K screen and before the 64-bit update CF would stretch out over my whole screen instead of showing CF windowed in 1920x1080 resolution. Now since the update the windowed mode is showing 1920x1080, instead of stretching over my whole 4K screen, which makes it unplayable because of the tiny screen size. Before everyone goes like "Use fullscreen": No. When using fullscreen all my windows which are opened will resize and move around my 2 screens. The same goes for all icons on my desktop, even moving them outside my screen so I cant even reach them anymore. This is annoying alot, just like how CF minimalizes everything when starting up. (Never understood why Z8 put this in anyway)
So, either I am forced to close all my windows and have to deal with my icons being randomly thrown around all over my screens or even outside to reach anymore, or playing with a tiny screen size which is ridicilous. My question is why this was changed (if changed) and if its possible to just change it back, or build an option in to just stretch it all over your screen. Otherwise, since I have a feeling no one is going to do anything with this anyway, a sort of program forcing CF to scretch if someone knows one.

Use a crappier screen when playing older games like CF, that aren't suited for stuff newer than 2012.
or
Check if there is something in your GPU software that can help you. I use Radeon (but Nvidia should have the same options in it's software) and under the tab screen(or monitor, I don't know what it's called in the English versions, I have the Swedish one), there are several options that looks promising. Use the one specific for CF, not the tab for everything.JackPain (Sweden) -
Why would I change screens just to play CF? Then I rather change my resolution to 1920x1080. Still, this is not a solution, since everything will still be moving around and resized. I also can't change anything @ screensizes for CF in NVidia control panel.

[QUOTE=[MOD]ShadowRo;n6944474]P.S.
Messing around with game files can get a permanent block, i really won't take that solution, better send a ticket where mention also your complete hardware configuration.[/QUOTE]
This even includes forcing CF to run in 32-bit, while having a 64-bit system? Because that's actually what is happening right now. If so, then I will send ticket.
