Windowed fullscreen not saving.

Last few days this has been happening.
Game loads to full screen. Options to go to windowed full screen. Click on second monitor, POE goes to 1/2 screen size. Options to go to full screen and then go to windowed full screen.
No big deal but was wondering if my graphics card may be at fault?

It doesn't sound like it.

Could you show us the [DISPLAY] section of your production_Config.ini file?

If you're playing on Windows, the file will be in Documents > My Games > Path of Exile.

You can probably copy 'n' paste the following into File Explorer's address bar to get there;

%UserProfile%\Documents\My Games\Path of Exile
I'm working on something for the PoE community! 👀
I am facing the same issue since 2 days. My DISPLAY section of the config file is as follows:
[DISPLAY]
adapter_name=NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 - DELL S2721DGF
resolution_width=2560
fullscreen=false
borderless_windowed_fullscreen=true
resolution_height=1440
renderer_type=DirectX11
texture_quality=TextureQualityHigh
maximize_window=false
vsync=Adaptive
bloom_strength=1
shadow_type=High
use_dynamic_particle_culling=false
screenspace_effects=1
dx11_antialias_mode=2
screenspace_effects_resolution=2
light_quality=2
adapter_uid=00000000-0001004f-00
texture_filtering=16
background_framerate_limit_enabled=false
depth_of_field=false
use_dynamic_resolution=true
dynamic_resolution_fps=60
time_manipulation_effects=true
water_detail=1
global_illumination_detail=0
framerate_limit=240
quality=true
upscale_resolution=UltraQuality
screen_shake_v2=true
dx12_antialias_mode=0
camera_zrotation=true
triple_buffering=true
upscale=NIS
framerate_limit_enabled=false
background_framerate_limit=30
upscale_sharpness=0.15
upscale_quality=Quality
device_type=DirectX12
upscale_quality_xess=Performance

Basically everytime I log in, the game changes the mode to fullscreen. I'll change it back to windowed fullscreen and save the changes. It will stay as windowed fullscreen for abit and then revert back to fullscreen by itself. As I login today, it has reverted to fullscreen by itself again.

Thanks for the response but i am absolutely hopeless with comps.
Being well over 70 doesn't help i suppose.
Been playing POE for many years so why would it suddenly change?
Seems the other guy has the same problem.
just wanted to add that i face the same issue since the last patch.
Logged in today and all seems to be back to normal?
That's good for you. Unfortunately for me, still having the same issue.
Same issue. Incredibly annoying
