November 20, 20214 yr Author I had stutters bad, low fps, couldn't use vr at all. This at least put my performance back to what i was getting pre update 7. Actually my flat screen runs very good now after up7. vr is a little weak but i have and older rig. 1080 ti Anthony Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60 GHZ, 32 GB ram, win 11, gtx 4070 Super
November 20, 20214 yr I was about to try this out and found that I have 2 copies of Flightsimulator.exe and both show a zero byte size. I have Win 11 and this likely why they are zero sized, but 2 places? One is in the usual place the another is in a directory 2 levels 'up'. Strange.

November 20, 20214 yr I disabled full-screen optimization as suggested, and my performance did indeed improve noticeably. Thank you to those who suggested this tweak. While this does work for me, it is difficult to explain why, since my understanding is that MSFS full screen is actually running as a borderless window rather than a true full-screen display.
