DISCORD_FIX--WINDOWS10.MD

Intro

This is to serve as a quick set-up how-to and settings dump for fixing the abysmal experience for discord on windows 10.

Step 1 : Modify Your Application settings

Doing this will allow you to Resize the window to any size.

(You can google how. Start Here: https://www.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/acog0e/remove_minimum_size_of_discord_window_windowsmac/)

Navigate to C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Discord\settings.json

Paste this

{
  "IS_MAXIMIZED": false,
  "IS_MINIMIZED": false,
  "MIN_WIDTH": 0,
  "MIN_HEIGHT": 0,
  "WINDOW_BOUNDS": {
    "x": 10,
    "y": 40,
    "width": 462,
    "height": 759
  },
  "BACKGROUND_COLOR": "#202225"
}

Restart Discord.

Step 2

Download and install BandagedBD which is just an upkept fork of BetterDiscord
