nVIDIA DSR does not work in borderless window mode

It appears that the nVIDIA Dynamic Super Resolution (DSR) does not work in borderless window mode. I can't select the higher resolutions in game.

I remember that it used to work in borderless window mode, did something change?

    With most of the games I play, this is how it works, as borderless window mode will inherit your desktop resolution. You can however change your desktop resolution to whatever you like and then launch ESO, and it will now be to your new specified resolution. However, if you want the convenience of doing it in-game, you're gonna need to go fullscreen.

    Why you are not playing in fullscreen anyway?
    Time to upgrade the hamster cage yes ?

    This game has issues in fullscreen that it doesn't have in windowed mode. It also happens to break when alt+tab is used to switch to a different program from the game, like a web browser because much of the game is stupidly confusing so we need uesp.net and other resources while playing.
    This is not the first game to have issues with alt+tab from full screen, but it certainly makes them rough.

    I am playing other games with nVIDIA DSR in borderless windowed mode, works perfect and I can change the resolution to higher than my desktop just fine. Just ESO does not work in borderless. I remember it did use to work when I was trying out DSR with ESO, something changed along the way.

    I don't play in fullscreen because sometimes I need to refer to sites for notes and stuff on second monitor. And my hamster cage if full upgraded and recent. Just that ESO is not. ;-)

    I play in full screen mode all the time and never had issues with Alt-Tab'ing out and back. And this is with DSR.
