Hello,
A lot of the time when I exit Dota 2 after playing in Fullscreen Mode, the game changes my desktop's screen resolution to 1024 x 768 pixels.
I'd never encountered anything like this problem years ago when I last played the game (I just built a new PC and have been starting to get back into Dota 2). I don't think I have this issue with any other games in my Steam library.
It's especially problematic because after the screen resolution switches, I don't see an option in my OS's system settings to change back to my monitor's native resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels, 60 Hertz). For some reason it shows pretty much every other screen resolution except for mine.
To return it back to 1920 x 1080, I have to do a full system restart. It's a pain to have to do this every time I just want to play a game of Dota 2. Obviously this shouldn't be happening, and I wonder if others have experienced this problem.
Please let me know if I can offer any more information about the issue. And in the meantime, if this is a known problem, I'd be happy to learn about any workarounds.
Thanks!
Steps for reproducing this issue:
Start Dota 2 with the video already set to Fullscreen Mode (1920 x 1080 pixels, 60 Hertz resolution) in the game's settings.
Play normally, the screen resolution remains fine.
Exit Dota 2, and the screen resolution on the desktop switches to 1024 x 768 pixels.
