Eliminating Windows 11 Services for Smoother Performance

Featured Replies

Hi Everybody,

I was doing real well (performance wise) using Nvidia 572.70 drivers with the latest Gigabyte bios update and chipset upgrade... with that said... I just spent another two days reducing my Windows 11 background apps from 58 to 23 and my window processes from 90 down to 57.

Hard to believe my I9-10900's (external visuals) can keep up with the 7950x3D (server/center visual) as far as stutters/flickers. Although the I9's use more memory than the 7950x3D setup.

7950x3D = CPU 10% usage - Memory 24%

I9-10900 = CPU 10% usage - Memory 41%

This was worth two days of trial and error!

Interesting. What processes did you kill?

Hi,

The text is almost two hundred lines of deletes, not sure I can put that up here. Maybe I can try images.
 

WARNING: I only use these computers for flight simulation, networking and internet access for weather! If you mess with your systems registry, you do so at your own risk!

Make sure you have a restore point before playing. This should now be the right link to the data.

This is what was done over two days, the end result is amazing.

Hi Everybody,

 

I haven't removed all the stutters/flickers, but it's better than its been in some time.

My advice is (running the internal build of 12.2.0 already) to not spend too much effort into eliminating stutter right now...

They are all but gone so if 12.2.0 is even better then the few I have left will be gone as well.

Doesn't something like process lasso help handle that?

Friendly reminder: WHITELIST AVSIM IN YOUR AD-BLOCKER. Especially if you're on a modern CPU that can run a flight simulator well. These web servers aren't free...

Hi,

I wanted all non used services stopped permanently, I use this for Flightsim only so my computer needs aren't going to change. I'm not sure if Lasso is capable of shutting down all of Windows 11 services, some required registry controlset changes.

Not shutting down. But should be good for separating them away from the cores assigned to Xp. Don't get me wrong: what you've done is admirable (and makes me love linux even more).

Well, win11 is a big bloatware.... I have it striped down from install ISO so it works mostly fine for me then...

Mike, the list of stopped services is not fully readable on the linked jpg. 

Could you please paste a txt file?
