  Hi,

  this tip does not work on my M1 Mac Mini (macOS version 11.6).

  I've deleted and installed WGT again but that didn't help. At the moment the game is windowed so big that I can't access any buttons at the bottom of the game screen.

  Any other tips that I could try?

  ScottHope:

  When you launch the game you will see a play button at the bottom of the WGT Launcher window.  Hold down your control key, then click the play button. DO NOT release the control key until the WGT Golf Configuration window appears. Now release the control key and select your screen resolution setting. Check the windowed mode checkbox, ignore all other options then click play.

  After the most recent update (Oct 14th), I don't get a WGT Golf Configuration window anymore when I do this.  Does anyone else?  I'm running Windows 10.

  Not working for me either Sam.

  Looking on the bright side, one less thing for me to try and remember.  : ))

  This fix is not working for me, unless I need to hold ctrl for longer than 2-3 minutes? Any other solutions?

  You're right Blackjackman, that solution stopped working quite some time ago.

  If you are on Windows you could try a reset.

  I tried this and it does not work on my MacBook.  Is there another way to start WGT so I can change the display settings because I used to start it in full screen and it worked great but right after this recent update, the start up screen comes up and just flickers and flickers.  The game never starts and I never see the options to play golf like I used to.  I tried to reinstall the app by downloading it and get the same thing and I tried this Control button you mention but I never see a way to fix what I think is a display problem because the first screen displays but then just flickers forever whether I hold the Control button or not and the game never comes up.

   

  Help !!!
