Windows 10 Update Causes Performance Drops, Input Lag in Games; Microsoft Promises Fix

Microsoft has confirmed that a recent Windows 10 cumulative update is causing severe problems in some games, including stuttering, input lag, and performance drops. The company is aware of the problems and has promised to fix in the  future. Gamers who are affected by this update that has to advised to uninstall the recent update. This issue was detected after Microsoft released its cumulative update, named KB4482887, for Windows 10 (version 1809, also known as the October 2018 Update), on March 1. This was a cumulative fix meant to correct bugs, and did not update any new features.

Customers who uninstall the replace would possibly must set Home windows to defer long term updates for now, to stop it from being put in mechanically once more. A repair may just come early subsequent week when the continuously scheduled ‘Patch Tuesday’ replace is launched.

Bleeping Computer reports that complaints about performance drops started appearing on the Microsoft subreddit, and some users speculated that they were being caused by a new mitigation measure for the Spectre CPU vulnerability, called Retpoline, but a user representing themself as a Microsoft employee posted that that this should not be the case since the mitigation has not rolled out to consumer copies of Windows 10 yet.
