Low Performance after Windows 11 2022 Update? Here is the fix​

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 09/25/2022 09:20 AM | source: | 0 comment(s)

Link Removed
On Friday we reported that many people have an issue with slow framerates after upgrading to Windows the 11 2022 update in combination with a GeForce Graphics card. NVIDIA just issued a fix.
That fix does require GeForce Experience to be installed though.
Issue:
Some users may observer lower performance in games or applications after updating to Microsoft Windows 11 2022 Update

Solution:
Update to the latest NVIDIA GeForce Experience v3.26 BETA by choosing from one of the two methods below:

a) Manually download the NVIDIA GeForce Experience v3.26 installer from the URL below. Once downloaded, proceed with the installation.
https://us.download.nvidia.com/GFE/GFEClient/3.26.0.131/GeForce_Experience_Beta_v3.26.0.131.exe

b) From within the GeForce Experience app, open up “Settings” in GeForce Experience and select “Enable Experimental Features”. Then close GeForce Experience. Wait 30 seconds and then re-open GeForce Experience. The app will automatically update to the latest version.

The non-Beta version of NVIDIA GeForce Experience 3.26 is expected to go live with a new GeForce Game Ready Driver the week of September 26.
