Information (Windows 8/10) Turn off compatibility mode

THANK YOU SO MUCH
Starting couple of months back, my computer has been stuttering REALLY badly every time I open/close more than 2 clients at once. I got frustrated so much today that I went up to computer store and bought another power supply because I thought my old PSU was failing. And nope! The issue was still there.
Even just now, I've been monitoring what might be causing the issue and observed that there seemed to be a big spike in gpu usage every time I open/close the client so I thought it was an issue with Nvidia driver or problem with my current hardware.

Then I saw your post and disabled compatibility mode. Poof! Stutterings gone now
Great work!
and brb returning my new psu

 

it still does happen to me, but Ive seen much more noticeable difference in terms of length and frequency of stutters.
Either way, this method certainly helped in my case!

 

had the same issues as shot, and the game remains unplayable for me after 1-2 minutes in fullscreen (running on my NVIDIA graphics). Unfortunately, running my integrated Intel drivers gives this really bad flickering, unless on a wide screen client running Legends+.

Was worth a try though.

 

For me, when I launch the client with compatibility, my PC sutters extremely badly at like not even 1 FPS and even my PC's sound stutters like crazy until the client is completely booted up (feels like this takes forever, though probably takes a minute or two). This has been happening only since the beginning of this year or something (probably some Windows Update). Luckily though, for me it doesn't happen at all anymore when I turn off the compatibility. I do have the issue that sometimes I can have the client boot for hours and it will just remain a white window forever. Keep force closing/crashing it and re-opening it until it works is the only way I've been able to launch the client when that happens. Haven't noticed a difference when I use different compatibilities then.
