I have a two monitors, and I use the second one mainly for playing YouTube or Netflix in the background while playing games. But whenever I click off of my primary monitor the game minimizes. Is there anyway to not have this happen.

Fullscreen window.. 

 

That's the solution. Or just deal with it when it does it.

It means running the game in windowed mode, so you can click off it without it going off.

(The bar at the top with the name and minimize, close etc...)

Windowed border less rather than full screen.
