Trying to put Minecraft in fullscreen on my second monitor crashes the game
What I do to reproduce this: I open the game up normally, it actually opens up already in fullscreen on my laptop's screen, but then if I move the game to my second monitor and try to make it fullscreen, the game crashes. The error code I am given in the crash log is -1073740791, which I know is a common crash number, however the fixes recommended for that crash don't seem to do anything in this case.
I am using the latest Nvidia GeForce Game Ready Driver (452.06) so I don't think that that's my issue.
Now, to re-iterate, the game can run in fullscreen on my laptop without a problem, however as soon as I try to put the game in fullscreen on my second monitor, the game crashes.

Hey, I don´t know if you will read this, but I had the same issue and I solved it. I have a laptop with an amd gpu so I don´t know if this will work.
The solution was to go to the drivers and activate an option called "Triple OpenGL Buffering" or something like that and it worked.
I also had this problem and after a LOT of tinkering, I found the solution.
I hope it works for you, good luck.
Thank you for your report!
However, this issue is Invalid.
This is an issue with your Nvidia drivers, not with the game.
