During editing, I must have clicked on a button. The result, I have now fullscreen mode on both of my screens and can't exit it anymore. I tried all the SHIFT/CTRL/ ALT & everything, but nothing worked. I'm urgently trying to finish a project with a shortly deadline. Please help me.

PS: Im working on a widows computer.

Thx alot!

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.
