Alas, it is already off.

Oh, no, sorry, it's back. I thought that I had, but apparently not. The thing is that it doesn't normally lag at all, its only when I tab out and back in. It's a nuisance to have to restart the game every time.

I found a solution. NVIDIA Latency Boost eliminates the lag.

If I am playing a game (as far as I know, any game), and I tab out to Windows to do something else, when I return to the game there is a good chance that it will then suffer from severe lag. This is when I move the mouse (view) around that it stutters and lags. The only remedy I have found is to...

I eventually managed to resolve all the problems with an additional app. Windows was working OK, except when I went from B+C to A., Windows still thought that C was on. Also, I have a long standing issue that I need all the taskbars to be identical and in Win 11 they are things missing on the...

I found it!! Windows 11 remembers monitor configurations. So if you turn one off, then it adopts the remembered configuration for the ones that are on. However, for reasons unknown, it managed to mess up. When I had B+C on and A off, it had B as the primary, but when I switched B+C off and A on...

The curious thing is that the settings reset to the primary display if Windows boots with all other displays off. But if you turn off an hdmi, it still goes to that screen if it was on it before. And unlike other apps, you can't "move" a settings screen from the taskbar. How odd. The big...

Perhaps the most annoying thing is when Settings appears off-screen. You can't "Move" a settings window so the only thing to do is reboot the PC.

Thank you for the reply! Yes, everything is as it should be. At the moment I am considering buying a DP monitor or just living with the problem.

I have used triple monitors with Win 11 for a long time. I will run A or B+C with the other(s) being switched off. Monitor A is DP. Monitor B+C are DP and HDMI. When A is on it is the primary monitor. When B+C are on, B is the primary monitor. This has worked flawlessly with Win 11 since I...

I get annoyed with my PC being cluttered with apps I don't want! I know some weeks ago there was much discussion about this app not being removable. Did anyone find a way? (Or at least hide it from the All Apps list).

Oh, sorry, I just found the answer on the forum. https://www.elevenforum.com/t/turn-off-microsoft-account-prompt-start-menu.24957/ It was interesting the way that Microsoft had turned advertising back on as well. I really dislike the new Microsoft. They are so persistently annoying. I bought...

This message has appeared on my start menu when I hold my mouse over my login name at the bottom left, as well as a big orange dot over my photo. When I click to see what the message is, turns out it's Microsoft trying to persuade me to get an account. I find the orange dot more than annoying...

Honestly, I don't see how that is relevant to what I am trying to do. I'm sure that's my fault, but my feelings on the matter are that if I need to read a book to just enter a parameter in Task Scheduler, then Microsoft are doing something wrong. I have repeatedly found that not having access...

Unfortunately they seem to have blocked that now. The location is missing from properties. I eventually found the "Windows Apps" folder, which is hidden and of course they deny access to it. Its full of Bing News folders, for some reason, and other stuff that no one actually wants. 225 folders...
