Make WPF Application Fullscreen (Cover startmenu)

Solution 1:

You're probably missing the WindowState="Maximized", try the following:

<Window x:Class="HTA.MainWindow"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525"
    WindowStyle="None" ResizeMode="NoResize"  
    WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen" WindowState="Maximized">

Solution 2:

<Window x:Class="HTA.MainWindow"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    mc:Ignorable="d" 
    ResizeMode="NoResize"
    WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen" 
    Width="1024" Height="768"
    WindowState="Maximized" WindowStyle="None">

Window state to Maximized and window style to None

Solution 3:

You can also do it at run time as follows :

  • Assign name to the window (x:Name = "HomePage")
  • In constructor just set WindowState property to Maximized as follows

HomePage.WindowState = WindowState.Maximized;

Solution 4:

window.WindowStyle = WindowStyle.None;
window.ResizeMode = ResizeMode.NoResize;
window.Left = 0;
window.Top = 0;
window.Width = SystemParameters.VirtualScreenWidth;
window.Height = SystemParameters.VirtualScreenHeight;
window.Topmost = true;

Works with multiple screens
