Hi, Im just bought TGB Pro 1.7.

After I installed the TGB 1.7.2 and launch it. I got a fullscreen mode with 640*480. Is it a bug ?
It even cannot correctly display the editor.
How can I get back to windows mode ?

Sorry Im new here. Can anyone help me?

    Alt + enter should toggle you between fullscreen and windowed mode

    Don't suppose you upgraded from the regular version? I did this and installed 1.7.2 Pro on top of the old version and it did the same to me. I couldnt get it to not do it either, and I lost the menu bar at the top. I ended up having to uninstall, clear out the registry and then reinstall to fix it for me.

    I don't know is it my laptop problem?

    I tried 'Alt+enter' a lot of times. still cannot change back to windowed mode.
    I checked the log. it always initialize to fullscreen mode. Even I used "-windowed".
    And commonPrefs.cs file always generate the fullscreen=1.
    I don't know why~

    Thanks Brian,

    Succeeded now. I use your approach, uninstall all troque products. and install the TGB first. I got no problem now. thanks.

    Summary it.
    I asked my friends to try to install the TGB 1.7.2. he also got the same problem like me.
    I think that just because we both two installed the 'Troque Game Engine', 'Troque Show Tools' and 'Troque Constructor' first before TGB.
    I re-arranged the installation sequence. TGB first. now the problem gone.
    I think that really a BUG~LOL
