According to users’ feedback, the cumulative update KB5004237 released on this month’s Patch Tuesday event did not fix annoying performance and game issues. At present, Microsoft has acknowledged these user reports and has begun to develop another patch to better solve the power plan and game mode issues.
Since the cumulative update released in March this year, Windows 10 users have continued to report game performance issues. Users reported that other issues such as dropped frames and game freezes occurred after applying these updates.
In April of this year, Microsoft released a server patch, and the same repair method was also bundled in KB5004237 (July Patch Tuesday), but it turns out that the patch released by Microsoft on July 13 did not fully repair the game problem. (Frame rate drops and abnormal rendering issues).
A user left a message in the Reddit community: There are still problems. Since KB5000842, I have always had game performance problems here. Someone at Microsoft really needs to solve this problem. The solution is to set your power plan to high performance, but I prefer to stay on the balanced power plan.
Windows provides you with various power plans. We can customize how our machines use power to squeeze more performance or reduce power usage. It seems that a bug in Windows 10 is preventing the power plan from working as expected. As a result, some users have reported decreased FPS and performance issues when playing some games.
Microsoft is aware of a problem with the default or custom power plan. The selected power plan may not work as expected, causing performance issues, especially when playing games. Now, Microsoft seems to have found a fix.
