Windows 11 Why do my games keep minimizing to desktop randomly?
When playing games fullscreen on Windows 11, they often jump back to desktop for no reason. No popups, no notifications—just random minimizing.

This is a frustrating issue, but it's almost always fixable. The problem is usually caused by a background program stealing focus from your game or a specific Windows 11 setting interfering with full-screen mode.
