Frame Drop After Alt-Tab on Win10

Question

Hi,

I have a problem regarding Xplane 11 on Win10 64-bit. I have a GTX1060 and an i5 CPU.

So, when I alt-tab out of Xplane 11 I get massive frame drops when I go back into XP11. I have no clue how to fix this, but I have made sure that my OS and graphics drivers are up to date. I also read somewhere online that disabling Game DVR in the Xbox app on Win10 may fix the issue, however, it doesn't.

Answer 1

When this issue came up a lot a few months back, updating graphics drivers fixed it for most people I believe. If you have tried all these options, and it is still not working for you, I do not know of any other options to try. If possible, does rolling back graphics drivers one version help?

Answer 2

I'm not sure if this will solve your problem, but I had a simular problem and I TOTALLY shut down my computer for several minutes then restarted the computer and then reloaded the simulator. It improved the frames by 5 times. I 'm not a computer wiz but it seems that a lot is being left in memory, therefore it's not being cleared enough to render an acceptable frame rate, when you restart the simulator.

good luck
