Same question haha, seems impossible. Regular windowing programs dont work, alt tabbing doesnt work, resolution and registry changes dont do anything either. Anyone ever finds this i will be eternally grateful :)

That has been a topic for 10 years, I don't think you can run ee/aoc in window mode.

Yes you can, by running EE on a VM and that VM in window mode on host system.

EE can't and probably never will be able to run on a VM.

This shows that you've never used a VM before as 3D acceleration simply doesn't work!

Oldspiece, if you're just having problems running EE on a 16:9 monitor, you should try to adjust your monitor to use the correct width-to-height-ratio. It is a monitor option though.

I used to run AOC in windowed mode a long while back.
there was an app that changed the screen dimensions and put it in a regular windows box.

You actually can run EE on VMWare with VMWare tools installed.

Sorry to sound like an idiot, but what is it actually called, searching for that doesn't yield any useful results.
