Suppose your user has a vision disability and can not find the Exit command because now you have hijacked his system? Or perhaps the user would like to be able to switch to other open Windows (check email, instant messenger, etc.), and does not like working at that resolution?OneTJN said:
Or what if your program crashes the system, and again the user is stuck with your resolution?
There's really no good reason to be invasive to the user's settings.
