I played a game on Steam using my laptop. After quitting, I left the room to eat dinner. The Steam library displayed on the screen, and the game I was using was selected with the play button active. I had a Logitech k780 Bluetooth keyboard on my bed, which was paired with my laptop. While cleaning the room, I moved the keyboard to another spot. The keys were being pressed because the keyboard was held near the edge with accessible keys. When I returned, I noticed the VulkanInfo window appeared in the CMD and it was open in full screen. The taskbar wasn’t visible. I closed the CMD window and saw that the game page in Steam had scrolled down, making the play button hidden. That suggests the full-screen paging was triggered. I’m curious about how to open VulkanInfo in full screen without using the CMD shortcut. Usually, you need to type 'vulkaninfo' in CMD and it opens as a small window, not full screen. The Vulkanifo method doesn’t seem to work that way.

Yes, it is possible. For instance, press the Windows key and then V. If vulkaninfo appears first in your list, you only need to press enter to open it. Based on the key combination used, I was surprised your disk wasn't accidentally formatted. I recommend securing your PC if you remember the keyboard shortcut (e.g., Windows + L).
