In addition, a similar situation occurs when playing Minecraft Java Edition. Previously, I did not experience this issue when using an AMD graphics card, so I reasonably suspect that this version of the driver (the latest 2026.2.25 driver) has compatibility issues with OpenGL and Vulkan.</P> Sat, 28 Feb 2026 14:42:05 GMT chihayanoanon 2026-02-28T14:42:05Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Arc-Discrete-Graphics/When-playing-Arknights-Endfield-using-the-default-Vulkan-API/m-p/1738939#M33730 <P>When playing 'Arknights: Endfield', using the default Vulkan API and entering fullscreen mode, the screen will go black for a period of time when switching applications with Alt+Tab or using the Win key.
