 Hello Jari,

Did you try to enable the "Ignore Deactivation" option using hotkeys (Ctrl+Shift+Alt+I by default) or Specific Settings (Actual Multiple Monitors -> Window Settings -> Specific Settings -> Startup tab -> Ignore deactivation)?

If both methods doesn't work, please try the "Compatibility mode" option (Actual Multiple Monitors -> Hotkeys -> Actions -> Ignore deactivation -> Compatibility mode).

Best regards.

Jari, please clarify this. After using "Ignore Deactivation" hotkeys you are able to activate another window and the game window will not be minimized. But after activating another window you are unable to send commands to the game using your keyboard. Am I understand the behavior correctly?

Best regards.

 Yes thats correct

tested it in dying light and it works in that game i can still keep moving on main screen when i click something on secondary screen used
Specific Settings (Actual Multiple Monitors -> Window Settings -> Specific Settings -> Startup tab -> Ignore deactivation

so maybe update is needed for Elite dangerous

 Jari,

The Ignore Deactivation feature provides a possibility to use another display without a game minimization. The ability to catch keyboard keys pressing depends on a concrete game.

Best regards.
