Windows 11 help
I recently upgraded to windows 11. Before then with windows 10, I could play any of my games without any real issues. But upon upgrading to windows 11, some of my games now lag and stutter so much that I have to disable v-sync from the ingame settings and manually set the framerate in order to make them playable. I'm guessing windows 11 comes with it's own gaming features that might be having a conflict with some of my games or something. Does anyone know what part of windows 11 could be causing this and if there's a possible fix for it?

My video card is a GeForce RTX 2070 and not sure the driver version, but it's the latest one since I updated it the other day.

The Windows Game bar causes 0 issues on any of my 3 cards . Even though many years ago ,when it was introduced , my GT 520MX was unable to run any DirectX 11/12 games lol .The fix was -disabling it . But a lot of time has passed and Game bar should be polished .Moreover RTX 2070 is not so ancient as GT 520MX .

Hey thanks a bunch. Turning off the game bar seems to have fixed the lag issues I was having! Cheers!

Also it didn't seem to effect all my games, only some. And those it did effect lagged them like crazy. So I have no problems turning this feature off.
