Does anybody know how to get MBT to start full screen in Win 8.1? I have looked for a solution for two days and can't find an answer.

Thank you in advance.

You can't use the "Maximize Window" button in the top right corner of the window? Winkey + the Up Arrow should also maximize an app. If you don't have a keyboard and mouse, I don't know how to do it. I guess you need to program your remote to send a Winkey+Up signal.

Hm, I know how to do it for a shortcut. But that probably won't help you either. Just in case:

 

Right click on the shortcut (for MBT). Click Properties. Click on the Shortcut tab (if it didn't default to it). Change "Run" from Normal Window to Maximized.

 

Can also try this software (but I don't use it myself so use at your own risk)

Mine opens in fullscreen at startup. The key is getting it fullscreen and close it while it is fullscreen.

Thank you for the fast replies. I am running this on an HTPC with just a remote and win 8.1 is giving me fits. It does what it wants to do and to hell with the operator. I am trying out the suggested program because nothing else worked. Thanks again.

 

Edit: The app worked! Thank ya Jesus
