hi,for the people getting stuttering,after the update,goto settings gaming and deselect show gamebar when i play full-screen games
that will do it global,if u just want to do on a per game basis,right click your game exe,select properties,compatibility,select disable full-screen optimisations.
worked for me.

This sounds like one of the 'fixes' for the April Creators update.

We are discussing the Oct 17th update. there shouldn't be any stutter as this update was meant to include fixes.

(Damn Microsoft confusing everyone with their naming schemes!)

I've tested Rise of the Tomb Raider, Deus Ex Mankind Divided, The Division, Steep, For Honor and Alien Isolation, At best I've seen a 4FPS gain in the averages with Game Mode on vs off at 1080P and 1440P.
Maybe the huge gains people are seeing are the original Creators Update vs the Fall Creators Update regardless of Game Mode as Game Mode doesn't really seem to do much.

I installed this update and its killed my machine. Had to do a full system restore and i'm still struggling to play games properly.

First it started off with every monitor (3) flickering every few seconds with extremely low clock on 1080ti. After a windows reinstall the flickering has stopped but i can't even play the division or elite dangerous without stuttering.

No idea how to fix this, i've tried clean installing latest nvidia drivers multiple times.

Elite dangerous has gotten 5s-2 min freezes for me since this windows update.. sound carries on but nothing else then game eventually unfreezes and back to normal for 5 mins or 1 hour.

Well I am still seeing patchy performance in BF1. Some maps that where trouble spots before where much better but others still exhibited strange frame drops and hitching.

Maybe it's just server performance.

I was on the same server tho and 2/4 maps where fine whilst the other two weren't.
