Game Version: 1.12.2
This mod is a very simple addition to the game that will allow you to make your game run in borderless windowed instead of the default fullscreen available in Minecraft.
Advantages of borderless windowed versus default fullscreen
- You can just hit Escape and use your other monitors without minimizing the game
- You can alt+tab out of the game more smoothly
- You can have other windows on top of the Minecraft client when it's not active
Great! How do I use the mod ?
- Move the Minecraft window to the monitor you want to use for fullscreen.
- Then simply hit F11 (or the key you have keybound for fullscreen).
- That's it! You'll get a borderless windowed client!
Is this compatible with <Mod X>?
This mod uses Forge and should be compatible with all mods you're using! Just add it to your pack or mod folder and you're good to go.
I found a bug! HELP!
Please head over to the issue tracker if you found a bug in the mod so it gets fixed.
Can I use Fullscreen Windowed (Borderless) in my modpack?
You are free to include this mod in any modpack without my explicit permission. I would like to hear about it, just out of curiosity.
please update to 1.15.2

try this mod: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/borderless/files
Used this alot during Survival adventures in 1.12 but was sad to see no update for any further versions. Will there be an update for this mod?
Will there every be an Update to (forge) 1.14?
Hey, can I set custom resolution when borderless? I want lower res from the pc res but stretched to fullscreen. Is that possible?
SInce under it is mentioned it is not working on 1.7.10, I can say for me at least it works perfectly. You need first to load a map and after you are playing in it, you press F11 and voila, game goes fullscreen. Thank you so much. I am already in love with this. I think I have been waiting for this since the day I bought minecraft way back in time XD
Please 1.15.2.

I've ported (and rewritten) the mod for Fabric 1.15.2/20w12a+ here.
In reply to comp500:
exactly for fabric NOT FORGE
In reply to comp500:
Can you please do a port for Forge 1.15.2? Thank you for your contribution regardless.
In reply to Dashwii:
There's a link to a similar mod for Forge 1.15.2 in the curseforge description :)
This mod is great! I was just wondering if there’s any chance that this’ll be updated for (Forge) 1.15.1 in the near future?
This is one of the most taken-for-granted mods ever. It wasn’t until I tried disabling this mod that I realized how important this mod is.
It's not working for me on version 1.7.10
In reply to gyzr131:
I'm not sure where you see a 1.7.10 version on the side. This mod is meant for 1.10 and versions up to 1.12.
In reply to Lv44EnderShaman:
There is a 1.7.10 version, you just have to click through to files -> all files.
In reply to comp500:
Ah. Yeah, I had noticed when I had checked the Files section of the page. It's an honest mistake of mine; my bad. :)
Is it possible that this mod will get a Fabric version as well? That would be awesome as borderless fullscreen is annoying to set up on its own (I need it to record my screen)
In reply to Hexcede:
I'm thinking of rewriting this mod for Fabric 1.13/1.14/1.15. I did start work on a 1.14 Forge port of this mod (in my GitHub repo) but the original author doesn't seem to be responding, and I'd like to have his permission to use his code, if I'm going to. 1.13 also changed a lot of how fullscreen in Minecraft works, so I'd rather rewrite the mod if I'm going to port it anyway.
In reply to comp500:
I don't understand why Mojang makes so many unnecessary changes with each version. Changing how fullscreen works? Reading that nearly made me spit my drink out. What was the purpose of that? (only reason I'm asking is because it's related to your mod)
I used to be huge into redstone, but then after every new minecraft version, even if they didn't add any new mechanics to redstone, they would change block behavior, making half my redstone builds no longer work. Why bother learning something as complicated as redstones, if you're just going to have to relearn it once or twice a year?
