Since recently I noticed stuttering issues while playing Minecraft- just while walking around, the game would suddenly stutter and get choppy. This issue happens 100% of the time I’m playing in Fullscreen.
I chould not figure out what might be causing it until I streamed my screen to my friends via Discord- and they noticed that the game menu keeps randomly popping up on the screen- it seems to open for just a split second and then close- it’s not visible for me, it’s only visible for viewers when streaming on Discord.
I have tried testing for issues with my keyboard (Logitech G915) - I have powered it off, unplugged it- the issue persists, so it’s not a mattter of a physical ESC button being pressed.
I then used the “Windows Focus Logger” app to see if something is stealing focus from Minecraft- but the app focus remained on Minecraft the entire time.
The issue seeems to only be present in Fullscreen mode- when the game is Windowed, the issue disappears.
Please assist.

When the menu comes up in the video and pause it, you are in a different place in the world, I think this is just a quirk of Discord streaming when your system is at 100% and unable to push frames to your viewers, it just fills in the gaps with the first frame of your stream. I think its a system performance issue rather than a MC bug. It seems like your CPU is struggling, a potential overheating issue or driver issue? Does Task Manager performance tab show anything near 100%?
Strange that it only occurs in full-screen, perhaps this puts the game in a turbo performance mode, therefore increasing temperatures? Or maybe your FPS is capped when you are in windowed mode and becomes less demanding on CPU/GPU? Or maybe a problematic overlay stops working in windowed mode?
Can you share more hardware information with us, are you on a desktop or laptop? What is your CPU and GPU? Are all drivers up to date? Are PC temperatures fine? What does your F3 debug menu look like in full-screen vs windowed mode?
