In order to launch windows store app to full screen mode, check out the code here. Once app is launched in full screen mode, it can be resized by user by using the resize option which is available in all app windows and can not be removed. For windows pc, we can capture window resize event and try to enter full screen again which in effect doesn’t let user resize the application window. The java script code for achieving this: var page = WinJS.UI.Pages.define(“/index.html”, { ready: function (element, options) { // Add event for window resize event window.addEventListener(“resize”, onResizeView); } }); function onResizeView() { // Whenever window is resized, enter it to full screen mode var ViewManagement = Windows.UI.ViewManagement; var ApplicationView = ViewManagement.ApplicationView; var view = ApplicationView.getForCurrentView(); view.tryEnterFullScreenMode(); }  

The java script code for achieving this: // Create a Uri object from a URI string var uri = new Windows.Foundation.Uri(“http://test.com”); var options = new Windows.System.LauncherOptions(); // Launch the URI with a warning prompt options.treatAsUntrusted = true; // Launch the URI Windows.System.Launcher.launchUriAsync(uri, options).then( function (success) { if (success) { // URI launched } else { // URI launch failed } });
