Hello and good day everyone!
So I'm having an issue with gaming in fullscreen, I'm currently using a tv as a monitor, the TU8000 samsung tv to be exact and whenever I try to set any game that supports hdr to fullscreen, the game becomes extremely dim and the settings like picture mode is locked out, however if I set the game to windowed fullscreen or borderless, the color remains and the tv settings are there, usually I've been using it as such as a workaround (playing in borderless).
However I'm currently playing star wars jedi fallen order and the windowed mode doesn't work, its performance drastically reduces in windowed mode, so I was hoping there is a way to fix this issue.Yes I know this TVs hdr isnt really good and that's why its dim, but why is it even enabling when my hdr settings on windows is off? And is there a way to take off hdr completely? And why is it only activating in fullscreen? Sorry for the longest post just trying to be detailed as possible.

games typically use HDR settings to enhance the experience, especially with samsung devices. try turning off the tv and then turning it back on; on my samsung, this usually resolves hdr issues from windows.
