Windows 10 quirks and annoyances :S

[Pilotasso]

Welcome to the hurdles of new PC building (see sig). Only this time the trouble is all on the operating system.

 

I had to go thru uninstalling bloatware (Xbox DVR, telemetry, one drive, unwanted games/apps installed silently etc)

 

 

But one that I cannot get rid off is this FPS counter that shows up on every game, tried everything (Gforce shadowplay GF experience, even trying older drivers) and nada.

 

Some games wont run on full-screen like Mechwarrior online.

 

Anyone knows how to get rid of the FPS counter??

I think that is some of your "Performance Software" (MOBO software or... ) ... Check that.

OK, I ran task manager, terminated each executable at one time, and when I reached the culprit the problem went away. It was NZXT's CAM software FPS overlay. I only want to control the cooler's RGB but the software comes with alot of bloatware.

 

removed cam software from the boot sequence, problem went away.

See, the problem wasn't Windows, for a change. :)

I knew it wasn't or all of us with Win 10 would have it.
