Another Possible Performance Fix For Windows

How to change CPU priority to improve performance while playing

TRY THIS!!!!

Try this. It helped me to fix most of my frame drops while playing

Search for Registry Editor on Windows

Open Registry Editor

Type Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options in the Registry Editor

Right click Image File Execution Options, then select New>Key and name it eldenring.exe



Now right click eldenring.exe and do the same New>Key and name this one PerfOptions




Then right click PerfOptions and select New>DWORD (32-bits) Value and name it CpuPriorityClass




Open CpuPriorityClass and set its value to 3 and its base to hexadecimal




If you want to put another value here it’s a list with the possible values that you can input, I HIGHLY ADVICE TO SET THE VALUE TO 3

• 1 = Idle
  
• 2 = Normal
  
• 3 = High
  
• 4 = RealTime
  
• 5 = Below Normal
  
• 6 = Above Normal

All this may help you to get a better performance for the game

This does not seem to work on Windows 11, I followed the steps but it still runs at normal priority

A friend just did this and his PC loaded into the BIOS and now windows won't boot, any ideas?

No, it won't get you banned, this is just for changing the priority of a process so the CPU can focus more on said process, in this case the game

Stupid question but will this get you fromsoft banned?
