I’m not sure why this year+ old thread has been necro-ed, given that the post that brought it back to life didn’t ask any new questions.

However, if you’re interested in an update, then I have Windows 11 on my gaming laptop, and I did have problems with Solasta, Pathfinder: Kingmaker and BG3 (the latter in DX11 mode only), all of which dropped to ridiculously low frame rates. I tracked this down to the Windows 11 Game DVR setting, which as I don’t care about game recording I could just turn off and that solved the issues. There has been a Windows update since that may have fixed the underlying problem, but I’ve not got round to turning the setting back on and seeing whether it’s now okay.

I haven’t had any problems with other games, including older ones, though haven’t played a huge variety of games in the past couple of years.
