  1. Why does downgrading from windows 11 to windows 10 cause lag in games?


    I downgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 11 yesterday. I did a clean install, and I've noticed that my game fps (on average), in windows 11 was 144 fps (in black ops 3 and black ops 2), and now I'm getting just shy of 70 fps. It's cut in half. I could go up to 200 if i didn't cap it in windows 11, but now it's between 40-70 fps. usually in the 50's for the most part. It's quite strange cause this didn't happen in windows 11. I'm not sure what to do, since it doesn't give me the option to go back to windows 11 anymore, so now I'm stuck on 10.

    my laptop specs are a i7-11370h (4 cores) and a rtx 3050ti with 4gb vram. also a 8 gb ddr4 3200MHz ram, and 512GB Intel nvm-e SSD.

    I did however, have all of my steam games on my external SSD, so not sure if the windows 10 update messed with those games that i might need to reinstall. not 100% sure, cause i haven't tested games besides for steam games. I'll double check, but I'm on the latest windows 10 update, and i downloaded multiple graphics drivers to try to solve the issue, nothing. Can someone help me?

    (before you say to "close your apps and stuff because of ram", i have had every single app closed. before, i was able to stream on discord with 144 fps in black ops 3, and now with every single thing closed, i'm getting 50 fps. it makes no sense, and it's really irritating.)

    :)

    make sure you have all the available updates installed and all the latest drivers. also make sure your poer settings are set to performance as that can reduce the gpu from reaching its potential.

    PC Black Screen When Playing Games

    We basically tried everything from your side.
    If you want please proceed with the custom Windows installation

    You can reinstall windows 10/11 or update/downgrade to 11/10

    Can’t run games I used to be able to run anymore on my PC

    It could be nice give it a shot.
    Or if you're on windows 10 try upgrading to 11, or do the opposite. If you're on 11 downgrade to 10

    Xbox game pass FPS issues

    The games were working fine on windows 10. When I got windows 11 I had to pay for a new key to get the watermark off and I don't want to have to pay for another one for downgrading if I just will be upgrading again later on. Also when I go to downgrade it say downgrade to windows 7.

    Windows 11 - XBox App and Xbox Game Pass - Unable to install any game (error 0x00000001)

    I've tried a new VM, I could only download a Windows 11 ARM VHDX.

    So I tried to downgrade it to Windows 10 just after installation but it failed.

    So I will wait a patch of the Xbox app for Windows 11 ARM.
