rdr2 stopped opening in full screen

Need Help or so the wife keeps telling me

anyhow looked all over the web for a solution, but to no avail.
Not very savvy with computers (Understatement of the year)!
rdr2 was opening up in full screen , moved computer and when I reconnected everything it now opens up in a smaller window on the monitor. Monitor is a LG 32GK650F, 2560 x 1440 res.
In the game settings its still set to full screen so what have I done ? Hoping it's something really basic .
If I go into windows settings and change it to 1920 x1080 its full screen.
Wish I'd left it where it was now Grrrr.

Have you tried pressing Alt + Enter?

ALT+ENTER will get you back to full screen.

Reformat time.

(I thought this was going to be a star wars thread

)

Thanks for the replies. Have given ALT + ENTER a go but it didn't do anything

So, anymore solutions ? Could you also add a 'how to'. Yes, I know ,I'm a pain, something the wife also says

There's a dedicated thread for RDR2, might be worth searching/posting in there

Wrong sub-forum I think, but you probably need to go into the settings menu, fine the graphics settings, and change the resolution to meet your screen resolution. It may also have an option there for fullscreen or windowed mode.

Thanks again for the replies. Didn't know there was a dedicated RDR2 thread, I shall give that a go , fingers crossed
