Good morning and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

The 'unminimized' effect probably comes from the fact that the fullscreen game is no longer in focus (when you are interacting with the second monitor). How long does it go back when you reselect Final Fantasy XIV?

What do you do to get back into the game? Do you simply click on the correct screen or do you use Alt+Tab?

We hope we can be of assistance in helping you enjoy the exciting world of Final Fantasy XIV!
