    Can I use an app on PC to slow down a game?


    I'd like to use an app to make a game on PC run slower at times because I am physically unable to press the buttons quickly enough for certain tasks. The question is, is this considered "tampering" and will it get me banned?

    :)

    Starting to get feed up with the XB1 UI

    From time to time, depending on the game I am playing it might slow down. But I think it is related to the game not the overall UI. Also, think of this console like a late '80s to mid '90s PC. From time to time, it will slow
    down when multiple things are going on. You may need to close out apps by hitting start and closing the app/digital game.

    The same can be said of my Lumina 925, which shares the Windows 8 OS. And when I don't close out multiple apps, my phone slows down. Now, after most times I open an app. When I am done, I will close the app out and move on.

    Download speeds.

    It’s probably due to the amount of people updating the game/app which can slow down speeds

    Hi,

    You can install games on any drive, but I'm pretty sure the Game Pass app needs to go on C:\ drive.

    I really wouldn't recommend having a full C:\ drive. Not only will this slow your PC down, but a full drive will make updating Windows impossible.
