• Borderless mode. Converts any windowed application into a full-screen borderless window while maintaining the original resolution. Avoids common problems caused by traditional full-screen modes in multi-monitor configurations.
• Custom resolution support. Allows setting specific dimensions for application windows that do not scale correctly on high-resolution screens. Especially useful for older games or legacy software with fixed-size interfaces.
• Multi-monitor configuration. Offers explicit monitor selection for borderless windows, enabling precise positioning in multi-screen setups. The function respects individual resolutions and scaling factors.
• Window state restoration. Includes full revert capability to return applications to their original state with borders. Ensures compatibility with applications that require traditional window management.
• Persistent configuration. Maintains configuration data in an external file to remember preferences across sessions. Applications are automatically reopened in their previously configured state.
• Dark mode interface. Implements a full dark theme for the application, with appropriate contrast ratios and reduced brightness for prolonged use. The theme can be toggled without restarting the application.
• Start with system. Offers installation of a registry entry to run at Windows startup. Maintains borderless settings without manual intervention after system boot.
• Process selection. Uses precise window handle detection to apply modifications only to specified applications, avoiding unwanted changes to system windows.
• High DPI compatibility. Correctly handles high pixel density screens and Windows scaling settings to ensure proper dimensions and positioning across different configurations.
• Window style modification. Directly alters Windows API window styles to remove borders while maintaining z-order and taskbar integration.

The project originated to solve specific problems in games with multiple monitors, evolving into a complete window management tool. Current versions build on initial prototypes from 2018, with significant architectural improvements made in 2020. Developed primarily in C++ with Win32 API integration, the software maintains compatibility with Windows versions from Windows 7 through Windows 11. The project continues to receive updates to adapt to new Windows features and display technologies.
