I cannot find my other post.
In the WoW Classic stress test, when I try to change the setting from "Windowed (Fullscreen) to “Windowed”, the client flips back and forth two, maybe three times, then comes up with a message saying that World of Warcraft failed to start the 3D accelerator. The client crashes after that each time.
I thought you should know.
Yours is the second report of this I’ve seen today.
whenever i change to window mode in wow classic it changes back and forth quickly 3 or 4 times then crashes. The game plays fine in full screen but playing like that isnt practical since i use a 55 inch tv that sits 2 feet away. The BFA client and Private server clients both allow me to change to window mode fine, so its specific to Classic.
The error i get says “World of Warcraft was unable to start 3D acceleration.”

A good workaround from one of the respondents of that thread:
I found a workaround. on your blizzard app at the top left where is says blizzard click the drop down menu and click settings. then go to game settings. scroll down to World of warcraft classic and click the box that says additional command line arguments. in that box type -windowed

can confirm that workaround works well.
No way to go back to windowed fullscreen w/o deleting and reinstalling classic btw. Unless someone has found a workaround for that as well
