When I enable the web brower plugin, the packed game with fullscreen mode seems to be weird:

The window is not fullscreen and is placed on the up-left corner of my screen. When I disable the web brower plugin, the packed game works fine with fullscreen mode.

I tired this web browser plugin in UE4.27. Everything works fine and there is no problem related with fullscreen mode.

So I guess this may be a bug of UE5.0. Can somebody fix that? Thanks!

The same issue here. I tried various workarounds without luck.

This is also happening for me in 5.3.2. Would appreciate any workaround or fix, thanks!

The issue is present in version 5.5.1. As a workaround, you can load a different level or update the screen resolution after launching the game.

Why has this not been fixed already? Doesn’t make sense that it is broken for several years already. I’ll see if I can submit an issue for this…
