Sorry if that is an already known issue, didnt find anything here (still new).

I tried several of the resolution and window/fullscreen options and only the normal fullscreen option behaves closely as you would think.
The windows versions (why is there more than one?) all create a window that you can't move or resize or even move your mouse out of, which make them obsolete anyways. The purpose of a windowed game is to show other stuff in other windows (especially if you have a second monitor) and occasionally move your mouse there to click on stuff. Certainly, a mouse lock is totaly ok if you are piloting, but any time you have a pointer in MWO, you should be able to move out of the game window (as in most other games).

And then, why is the management screen (the one when you are not inside a mech) independant of any resolution or window settings? Should this screen not at least be fullscreen when needed? That would also help to un-clutter this screen.

tl;dr:

- game window not movable/resizable (and not sitting correctly) if set to "windowed" mode
- mouse cursor can not be moved out of game window in "windowed" mode
- management screen (not in mech screen) not using resolution/fullscreen mode if set
