Open Chrome App In Fullscreen. When launching as an installed app, Chrome is not running in true fullscreen experience so document.fullscreenElement returns null and the CSS selectors don't work.

I managed to make a shortcut that opens in full screen but there are no extensions.

If you’re on Windows 10, you will have to forgo launching Chrome from the Start menu. Create a desktop shortcut for Chrome. On Windows 10, you can create this shortcut from the Start Menu. Open the Start menu and go to the apps’ list. Look for Chrome and then drag & drop its app tile on to your desktop. But the kiosk/fullscreen mode --kiosk or --start-maximized doesn't work. I've looked up the commands through man google-chrome. I doesn't look like the option exists. Is this option hidden, or are there alternatives? A way of starting chrome in fullscreen by default? I'm guessing that there is a way to fake a key press on F11 after chrome has.
Then in Windows 8, Microsoft introduced fullscreen Metro apps which hid the taskbar as well. This did not go well with most users. In Windows 10, improvements have been made to both desktop app scaling and Universal app scaling. You can now open the command prompt fullscreen with the Alt + Enter hotkey. Fullscreen command prompt was last.
