Finally I solved my FPS problems in this game and the most demanding games in Windows 10 Fall Creators

[Blanky]

I had the same problems and I made adjustments and I can play with everything high, MSAA high, without vsync, without tearing, without dpc latency or inputlag of anything everything is super smooth.. I tell you some things that I have done in case they help you.

1st in the game executable (.exe) right click and properties, in the compatibility tab check the options run as administrator, disable full screen optimizations, invalidate ppp behavior ... select application.

2nd I have enabled HPET in both SO and Bios and my performance has multiplied with another command, the following 2:
bcdedit / set useplatformclock true
bcdedit / set disabledynamictick yes (to disable the dynamic tic to improve
even more the latency of DPC. I tried to execute the command in an elevated cmd of
privileges)

3º For better performance and to prevent memory leak in Windows disable NDU
Open regedit
Go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ ControlSet001 \ Services \ Ndu
Modify "Start" Value to 4 to disable it.

4th Windows Fast Startup. Disabling it resolves a lot of issues. You can disable it by navigating to Control Panel \ Hardware and Sound \ Power Options \ System Settings and removing check-mark from "Turn on fast startup (recommended)".

Power Options - set to High Performance to let the CPU run on full capacity at all
times rather than let it throttle. Helps with performance in games and prevents CPU
from throttling.

General things to do after you install a fresh copy of Windows (in essence remove
all the Telemetry Garbage that Microsoft forces by default):


5th First, do not login to your computer with Microsoft Account. If you already did then disable Microsoft Account and create a Local Account.

Type "Privacy" in Search Windows.
Click Privacy Settings.
In General Tab set everything to Off.
Click on Manage my Microsoft advertising and other personalization info and set
everything to Off. (A browser will open up).
In Location Tab, set everything to Off unless you are using one of those features.
In Camera Tab set everything to Off.
In Account Info set everything to Off.
In Contacts set everything to Off.
Calendar leave On.
In Message Tab set everything to Off.
In Radios set everything to Off.
In Other Devices set everything to Off.
Feedback & diagnostics set to Never for "Windows should ask for my feedback" and
set Diagnostic and usage data to Basic.
In Background apps set those apps that you do not use to Off.

6th Open Microsoft Edge and click on three dots on the top right corner and then click on Settings.
Click on View Advanced Settings and set everything to Off except "Block Popo-Ups" and "Use Adobe Flash Player".

7th Press on your keyboard 'Windows + R' and type gpedit.msc and hit enter.
In Local Group Policy Editor navigate to Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> One Drive
On the right side click on 'Prevent the usage of OneDrive for file storage' and set it to Enable and Apply. Do not close the Local Group Policy Editor.
In Local Group Policy Editor navigate to Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> All Settings and find 'Allow Telemetry' on the right side.
Double click on 'Allow Telemetry' and set it to Disabled and Apply.
Navigate to Computer Configuration> Administrative Templates> Windows Components> Search.
Locate the "Allow Cortana" setting in the right pane and double-click it.
Set the Allow Cortana option to "Disabled" and then click "OK".

8th Press on your keyboard 'Windows + R' and type regedit and hit enter.
In the Registry Editor navigate to Computer -> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows -> CurrentVersion -> Policies -> DataCollection
Then on the right side double click 'AllowTelemetry' and change value to 0 and then Ok to save.

9th In 'Search Windows' type command and right click on 'Command Prompt' and then 'Run As Administrator'.
Go to root. (cd ..)
Run the following commands:
SC DELETE DIAGTRACK
SC DELETE DMWAPPUSHSERVICE
ECHO ""> C: \ PROGRAMDATA \ MICROSOFT \ DIAGNOSIS \ ETLLOGS \ AUTOLOGGER \ AUTOLOGGER-DIAGTRACK-LISTENER.ETL

10th In 'Search Windows' type Cortana
Set everything to Off.
Under 'Manage what Cortana knows about me in the cloud' clear all history if you were logged in with your Microsoft Account. Once again, Disable Microsoft Account if you are still logged in with it (Important this way it is disabled all the synchronization of applications in the background consuming resources of the pc).

11º Disable Game Mode and all Xbox, DVR, Streaming, etc ... I leave you a link with how to make a bat file to deactivate it completely and there is also its version to activate it again when you find that update windows have 0 problems:

12th Disable CPU Core Parking of all cores.

13º Using Rivatuner the tool of Msi Afterburner limiting the FPS to the frequency of your monitor you subtract 0.007 before the limit of your monitor (This for me has been the best experience that I have been able to know in my gamer life for years and without this tool the fps fluctuate a lot and with it limiting is smooth, more information about it:

see what RealNC says in this article: https://forums.guru3d.com/threads/the-truth-about-pre-rendering-0.365860/page-12#post-5380262

14º Then if you have Nvidia important put set prerendered to 1, Maximun Performance, Single Monitor, etc ... Adjust it to your preferences.

15th If you updated to the latest versions of windows your cpu may have lost performance due to the theme Meltdown and Specter, with 1 tool I verified that activating it gives me performance loss:

and being aware that disabling it makes you vulnerable, I refuse to lose performance and with this tool I deactivated it (I have never had in 15 years of PC gamer any virus or anything but the omun sense to keep a clean, optimized and stable PC).

Since I have used these methods with Windows 10 Fall Creators latest version has been night and day on my pc, I hope it helps some of the sections forgive my bad English try to translate it as best I could, it has helped me a lot and I share them in case it helps someone.

Core parking? Isn't that already a non-issue since Windows 8?

Nice guide overall, but more like quality of life improvements for general Windows users.

On my Win 10, once I got to Power Options, I had to click "Choose what the power buttons do" at the left side, then click "Change settings that are currently unavailable". Once I did that, THEN I could untick "Turn on fast startup (recommended)". As it was, that option wasn't even shown the way you had it spelled out... Maybe because I have Win 10 Home, possibly?

Otherwise.. Thanks!! I knew a lot of this stuff in Win 7, but hadn't seen it all spelled out nice and neatly for Win 10. I did a bunch of that stuff already, but I learned a couple of things I hadn't seen yet. Really appreciate it.

7th Press on your keyboard 'Windows + R' and type gpedit.msc and hit enter.
In Local Group Policy Editor navigate to Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> One Drive...

Also, gpedit.msc isn't available by default on my version of Win 10.. I had to follow the steps here to get it enabled, just in case anyone else is trying to follow these instructions and it's unavailable for them as well.

But, it didn't really matter after all, because none of this stuff is listed in my Win 10 Group Policy Editor anyway..
. OneDrive
. Allow Telemetry
. AllowCortana

At first doing this tanked my FPS until I disabled HPET in BIOS as well. Now it's well above 60 FPS at all times.

Also:

bcdedit /set useplatformclock true
bcdedit /set disabledynamictick yes (to disable the dynamic tic to improve

Remove space before 'set', else it won't work.

DONT ENABLE HPET IN BIOS, it tanks your fps, to op, go and disable it and you will see even better performance.

What is "invalidate ppp behavior"?

is true that I forgot to mention it, some options like what you mention via gpedit.msc are only available in "pro" version onwards I think the "home" versions do not bring such options, you can always do it in another way via log, cmd , powershell but is more messy

This is a topic that has brought me much controversy and much forear, there are people who with this enabled lose performance and others who win, the conclusion that I take is to prove yourself and see WinTimerTester if the time to synchronize 1,000 is less, in my case has improved me, I think HPET works with older CPUs not modern generations that have their own more efficient timer, To see if it's on or off run "bcdedit /enum" and if you don't see a line that says "useplatformclock Yes" it's off.

I would like to say that I am not a computer user and I do not intend to make it work. I only share what personally in my PC has given me a performance that I have never seen, and I know many configurations and tricks that one learns and tests, the same thing does not give them confidence or does not give them a benefit every pc is a different world, I try to share some things as they mentioned they may seem from the windows itself but these things have an impact on the use of the OS itself to navigate, play do what be my pc is more stable and good performance

PD: The commands to me work as I copied them with a space after set, it may be different in your case, but believe me it works like this in this way

in my case windows 10 checking the registry and with applications it came out to me that they were all parked minus the core 0

You may be also interested in this method I decribe here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/582160/discussions/0/1696040635911435289/

It deals with Windows Fall Update and memory management, and it was the only working solution for me to get rid of stuttering.
