    Getting capped at 60 fps in Fullscreen and getting uncapped fps in windowed mode.


    After I updated my laptop (HP VIctus 15) when I opened my games I was capped at 60 fps when I was in full screen. But when I was using windowed mode it would get uncapped. I have a 144 hz display and have a nvidia graphics card. I checked for vsync on all of my software and all was turned off, even if it was on I should have been getting 144 fps. I already tried restarting my computer and I looked at restore points I can not find any. I tried different games like stumble guys, fortnite, roblox, stumble guys, and apex legends. On all these games I would get capped at 60 fps full screen and on windowed mode I would get over 200 fps. This happened after I tried installing my updates because I paused them for a month or two.

    :)

    Getting capped at 60 fps in Fullscreen and getting uncapped fps in windowed mode.

    Hi Awesometasee, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    I am sorry to hear that.

    Please, uninstall the current Graphic Card drivers.

    Open the Device Manager window by pressing the Windows Key + X and Select "Device Manager".

    Select Display Adapter > Right-click the device, and click Uninstall Device > OK

    Then, restart your PC.

    Then enter your graphics card manufacturer page, and download and install the latest drivers.

    Let me know if it works!

    xbox game pass PC Hellblade Senua Sacrifice ! Cannot change Resolution

    Same issue with 30fps cap in fullscreen mode. Game is installed through gamepass/Xbox for PC app and will only give 60 fps running in windowed mode. Maximizing the game window also drops the fps from 60 to 30, no matter the resolution. Any help would be
    greatly appreciated.

    Minecraft FPS Stuck At 60 While I'm At Full Screen (Not Happening In Older Windows Versions)

    My problem is with Minecraft. In windowed mode, my FPS is crazy, above 200.

    But while in fullscreen (Even windowed full screen), my FPS caps at 60, even with Optifine.

    I had to ask here, because this is a problem with Windows 10. I'm running 10 Home 1909, the latest release. That doesn't happen with Minecraft Windows 10. Is Microsoft trying to find a way to pull users to Bedrock?

    I would appreciate your help :)

    Sea of theives 30 fps

    Then how can I get 60 fps? I always get 60 fps in Forza, GTA V and Fortnite.

    Do I get 60 fps at 4k UHD?
    My friend has run his tests on SoT and we have reached the conclusion that you are capped at 30fps. There is no way to bypass this and as a result you can only run the game at 30fps.

    Some games can run at 60fps on the S depending on hw demanding the games are, however, SoT is most likely capped at 30. That's what I've been able to find out.
