    +1 for an easier access to gamer mode.
     
    Thanks for your solution, but there are many situations where games do not run full screen.
    Not only with 'windowed' games, but also such as in my situation - as a VR user.
    As VR becomes more popular this may become more of a problem.
    Even better would be the option to specify executable that are considered games. Then we could load our games into that list and ESET wouldn't need to 'guess' whether a full windowed app is a game or not as it'd know.

    The problem is that the user is playing the games in a windowed mode so it won't detect as its not full screen.
    There are two suggestions that would possibly fix this although the first one is one I've brought up a few times and know they have seen it and it isn't probably an easy fix and certainly not a priority
    1. The option to change what you see when you right click the eset icon. That way users can add things they use the most such as enable gaming mode, open firewall troubleshooter etc. While certainly not a critical feature I think this would be an interesting one as it gives users some choice.
    2. The other thing which I don't know if it exists is the ability to add specific games into eset so eset would turn on the gamer mode automatically when this game launches regardless of if that game is in full screen or not but if you've got loads of games this might be a little annoying and time consuming.
    Like the user has posted also keyboard shortcuts could also be a potential solution. 
    The problem is that some users may end up leaving gaming mode enabled which I presume isn't the best idea. Yes they are protected stl but notifications won't be shown and other stuff

    Getting back to Gamer-mode though.
    In summary, we'd like easier access to it.
    I assume it's hidden to enhance security, ie not make it easy to manually or automatically activate?
    Is this purely a design choice, or could it actually be moved/made now accessible?

    Yeah, I know they have seen it so don't really want to post on here, but being able to change what you see when you right click the eset icon would be handy. E.G. You could add gamer mode, firewall troubleshooter etc.

    That's quite an inconvenient way to activate a Gamer Mode any time you start a game.
    Wouldn't it be better to activate it by a shortcut (`egui.exe --gamer-mode` for example) or by a configurable hotkey?
