Instructions for viewing full screen UWP applications in Windows 10
Viewing the full screen of modern Windows 10 applications, also known as the UWP (Universal Windows Platform) application may be a bit difficult for some users. While the F11 shortcut works in many old Win32 platform applications, it no longer works on modern UWP applications. That's because Windows 10 designed its own keyboard shortcut that allows users to view most of the UWP applications in Windows 10. This shortcut is hard to detect unless you're very knowledgeable about shortcuts, otherwise, you don't even know its existence.
However, after this article, you can easily use the shortcut to open full screen UWP applications. You just need to press Shift + Win + Enter after focusing on a UWP application. This shortcut should work with all UWP applications but it is not possible because some applications do not allow the window to display the maximum size.
