This has been going on for decades in the FS community. I remember when Win XP SP1 was released in 2002, there were people on Avsim declaring it was a conspiracy and they would never update. Same for Win 7. There was a contingent of FS users who swore they weren’t going to upgrade and Win XP (which was 8 years old) was what they would use until it was pried from their hands. Many FS folks don’t like change, and they think behind every OS update is an ulterior motive by MS to force them to do something. Reality is security is a moving target, and often the victims of ransomware and other attacks are victims because they didn’t update and remediate the vulnerability.

The last large update that I did for my windows installation literally broke my PC. I was only able to recover when I did a complete window reinstall and thus all programs, settings, ect. took about three days to get back where I was. I review the updates to see if what is actually being updated has any application to what I do on my pc, often they do not. I do try to capture security updates when able.

August 11, 20214 yr Also, don't forget to add all all your Flight Sim (.exe's) to the W10 GPU Scheduler and set them to High Performance!!! Edited August 11, 20214 yr by Sesquashtoo

Isnt this the same task we use in Nvidia Control Panel under program settings ? Anyway i dont have the rights to add it to the W10 GPU Scheduler - using NVI Controlpanel instead Michael Moe Edited August 11, 20214 yr by Michael Moe Michael Moe

Would suggest you try Game Mode + HAGS on and off on your system to see if there are changes either way.

This is at the W10 level...telling it your GPU Scheduler performance. You should have both set to High Performance, I am getting simply incredible performance out of my modest GTX 1070.

August 11, 20214 yr MSFS is not a game! Therefore I'm not enabling any gaming mode. No, just kidding.
