How to stack a windowed app on a fullscreen app?

[Alexandert75]

The title explains it all, but here's an example: I want to watch a youtube video on a windowed google chrome tab while playing minecraft on full screen. I know hot to do it if both windows aren't fullscreen, but I don't know how to stack a windowed app on a fullscreen app.

You can't, not the way your thinking at least

 

You can have an app be always on top from another if it has that option. But the the game must have an option to be set in full screen without exclusive mode. If the game set itself as Exclusive Mode, then it will take over the screen, and you can't have anything over.

 

All you can do is by memory injection, like what Stems overlay or Fraps and such does. They inject themselves in the game. 

 

So how to make that work:

Windows Game Bar! You can start it via Win+G in your game, assuming you didn't disable it, that is. What is nice with the Game Bar is that they are extensions witch called widgets. One of the avail one that some one made is a web browser one which allows you to have one float over your game. So you can go the video page, and watch it as you wanted. That said, it isn't great, where it uses the old Edge web browser engine, and full screen videos keeps the Tab and address bar, and has no option beside Home page. But it is something. Scale the window how you want, and hit the Pin button, and quit the Game Bar menu, the web browser will float over your game.
