      This is Premiere not Photoshop. Does not have tiles.

        Thanks! This is the only answer I found that works for me on Premiere Pro 14.0.1.

        I saw your post and did not view it, but after experiencing the same problem I went looking for this post.

        The only way I was able to exit full screen was to 'reset workspace'. Resetting workspace is not something I like doing because it clears all my sequences off timeline and if I have 50 sequences in my timeline  drop down list, restting workspace clears the dropdown list as well.

        All I am after is to read this post and use as a reference when I trip over this ' can't exit fullscreen ' again. And, maybe this isn't even the post I saw, maybe there are more, but I parked here.

        Hi Rahel,

        Try hitting ~ key above the Tab key to check if it helps.

          Thanks a lot. We found this hint in other forums as well. But unfortunately I didnt help in our case. We also tried to delete and reinstall the programm, which didnt work as well. But thanks anyway.
