Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition – Borderless Fullscreen Fix Guide

Tired of your game minimizing even though you’ve set the game to Borderless? Then this is the guide for you.

How to Fix Borderless Fullscreen Issue

How to make Borderless work as you’d expect

To start off with, exit the game. Then you need to locate “settings.tml” in your “Documents folder -> Neverwinter Nights (scroll down to the bottom)”

With “settings.tml” opened in notepad you need to find the section called “[graphics.window]”(usually found around line 184) and copy the section below which aligns with your desktop resolution.

For 1080p

[graphics.window]
mode = "windowed"
[graphics.window.fullscreen]
height = 1080
toggle-to-borderless = true
width = 1920
[graphics.window.windowed]
borderless = true
height = 1080
width = 1920
[graphics.window.windowed.position]
mode = "remember"
x = 0
y = 0

For 1440p

[graphics.window]
mode = "windowed"
[graphics.window.fullscreen]
height = 1440
toggle-to-borderless = true
width = 2560
[graphics.window.windowed]
borderless = true
height = 1440
width = 2560
[graphics.window.windowed.position]
mode = "remember"
x = 0
y = 0

For 4k

[graphics.window]
mode = "windowed"
[graphics.window.fullscreen]
height = 2160
toggle-to-borderless = true
width = 3840
[graphics.window.windowed]
borderless = true
height = 2160
width = 3840
[graphics.window.windowed.position]
mode = "remember"
x = 0
y = 0

If that doesn’t do the trick there might be another step needed, depends on how your scaling works.

For the second step locate “Nwnmain.exe” and right click it; Properties -> Compatibility -> Change high DPI settings -> Override high DPI scaling behaviour -> System.

My settings in settings.tml are not being stored

Right click it and make sure it’s not set to Read-only.

I can’t find nwnmain.exe

Right click “Neverwinter Nights” in your steam library and choose properties -> Local Files -> Browse Local Files. The file will be in “bin” -> “win32”
