Hi! I hope I'm posting this in the right section but anyway I'm having trouble with something. I have a pc game that is played in full screen and have tried everything to try and make it into a smaller windowed mode but nothing works. The problem is that once the game starts up, it automatically goes into full screen mode so I'm unable to access OBS so I can't add a game capture. Is there anyway to access OBS or make the game play in a smaller window so I'm able to add a game capture? I have tried ALT + Tab and F11. I have also tried adding -window, -win, -w, -windowed at the end of the Target but it says it's invalid so that won't work either. I have one monitor and I'm using a laptop.

other options I use to alt-tab are alt-escape, even pressing the windows key sometimes gives me access to the start menu so I can get back into OBS.
