For me, text in games were blurry when set to fullscreen and I've been using full-screen borderless to resolve that.

But one game had an issue with that option (part of the window was off-screen) and I found that disabling full-screen optimization allowed for using the fullscreen option without text getting blurry (by right-clicking the exe, going to the Compatibility tab, and checking "Disable fullscreen optimizations").

But enabling that for every game would be tedious and I found regedit changes to enable it globally (from https://www.reddit.com/r/insurgency/comments/ck1429/psa_windows_10_1903_will_now_ignore_the_disable/):

``
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\GameConfigStore]

"GameDVR_FSEBehaviorMode"=dword:00000002

"GameDVR_HonorUserFSEBehaviorMode"=dword:00000001

"GameDVR_FSEBehavior"=dword:00000002

"GameDVR_DXGIHonorFSEWindowsCompatible"=dword:00000001
``

Just wanted to share that discovery in hopes that it helps others using Steam Deck and Windows 11.

Feel free to close this issue and please take this as just a suggestion.

Thanks for the suggestion, it looks like the registry settings are not just for disabling fullscreen optimizations, but you also have disabled the Gamebar functionality, which some users prefer to use with Gamepass. Additionally, that reddit post is a few years old and there are a couple users complaining about performance issues after configuring those registry keys.

I will keep this open and will consider adding it as a "Quality of Life" improvement, but I will need to test it first and confirm what is actually necessary.
