Borderless Mining Revived
Borderless Mining Revived changes how the Minecraft window fills the screen, offering borderless fullscreen with instant alt-tab and custom window placement on Fabric.
What it does
The mod replaces the standard fullscreen behavior with a borderless window that covers the monitor without a mode switch. Alt-tabbing to another program is immediate, and switching resolution no longer produces a black flash. Window size and position can be set by hand, and on multi-monitor setups the game can span screens, leave room for the taskbar, or fill an ultra-wide display. Picking which monitor the fullscreen window appears on is also supported.
The mod works alongside vanilla's 26.3 fullscreen options. Setting Exclusive Fullscreen to OFF makes Borderless Mining apply the monitor size settings, while setting true exclusive fullscreen is still possible when wanted. A config screen is available through Mod Menu, which is optional, and includes a toggle for macOS behavior. Fabric API is required.
The mod is published for Fabric only, across three release versions: 1.21.11, 26.1.1 and 26.3. Its latest file is 1.2.0+26.3 for 26.3, released on 2026-10-08. It runs on the client alone, so servers do not need it, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Borderless fullscreen
The game window covers the monitor without a fullscreen mode switch, which removes the black flash during resolution changes.
Instant alt-tab
Switching to another program takes effect at once, without the delay that exclusive fullscreen can cause.
Custom window size and position
The window can be placed and sized by hand, including spanning several monitors or leaving space for the taskbar.
Monitor selection
Players choose which monitor the fullscreen window uses, and the mod applies that monitor's size settings.

What the author says
Alt-tab without the black screen. Borderless Mining makes fullscreen use a borderless window, so you can use a second monitor, Discord, OBS or a browser without Minecraft minimizing or flickering.
