Stop Captivate project from opening full screen

Hi everyone,

I've seen a couple posts about how to 'trick' the program into opening in full screen, but my client is having the opposite problem. When I open the Mac-safe .exe (.app), the project opens to a little over half of the screen and I can expand or contract it however I wish. However, when my client opens the .exe version on her PC, she says it opens full-screen every time and she loses access to anything else on her computer until she exits the program. Any ideas on what this could be or how I could fix it?

Captivate when publishing for mac does not have the full screen setting, therefore does not open in full screen.

In the publish settings for windows did you have the full screen setting selected when you published from from Captivate - check that

Hahahha wow, I've become so accustomed to expecting Captivate to be difficult that I'm not even embarrassed about this easy fix I had spent so much time combing through the pre-export options and didn't check the actual export options...Thanks!

Captivate is not difficult, at least that is my idea. It becomes a problem when users start with Captivate without any basic training.
