Game launching in Full Screen every time and can't change it?

[Draco4000]

Greetings!

This is technically a minor issue, but it only started happening very recently and I'd like to know if there is a way to fix it. As the title suggests, my FF14 client (I use the launcher) has now started ignoring my display preferences and reverts back to launching the game in Full Screen every time I log on. I have been playing in Borderless Window mode for the past I don't know how many years, and I want it to remember that and launch that way by default like it used to.

The main issues I'm finding now are that the game appears more 'washed out' and drab visually when it's Full Screen (probably a monitor thing maybe?), and it does an annoying little flicker whenever I want to click over on my second monitor. Is there any way to force the game to remember I want it in BW mode when I log in without having to manually do it every time? Because I never used to have to, but for the past week or two suddenly I do.

Like I said, technically a minor issue, but one I would like to resolve if anyone can help me out. Thanks!


*** UPDATE: It seems to have fixed itself somehow, maybe with a patch. Problem solved. ***
