Issue with alt-tabbing

Hi there, I have a problem when I alt tab out of PoE.
So when I alt-tab out I have a black screen for like 2-3seconds. I'm wondering how or if it's possible to fix.
I have had a similar problem before however in that game there was an option where you could turn off "Exclusive mode" which would make alt-tabbing happen instantly.

Hope someone can help me, thanks.

Does this happen all the time or only in "Fullscreen Mode"?

Only in Fullscreen
Perhaps try playing it fullscreen windowed mode - just maximise the client to the screen.

i know it doesn't give a reason for it doing so, but its a way around it currently.

Fullscreen mode has issues with alot of players currently.

Thanks dude, it's not perfect fix but helps a lot :D
I have the same issue but for me the game crashes almost every time I alt-tab and that includes the online shopping naturally.

Actually I think this problem only started occuring with the last patch, I never had any problem with alt-tabbing before.

When you say crashing, you mean the client stops working and has to close? Or you're returned to the login screen?

I mean the game closes, I get the message "client.exe stopped working". I also noticed that when I pickup the Medicine Chest the game crashes to the desktop, it happens the last 2 time.

Looks like your graphics driver has trouble recovering from being inactive. Usually on older systems this can take a while if you play in fullscreen.

I would recommend playing in windowed fullscreen mode if you alt-tab regularly, because it doesn't put the game on inactive when you alt-tab, so it doesn't have to recover which should fix your issue.

It is slightly heavier on your system though, but it's a small price to pay for having to close the game all the time.
