I recently bought a gaming laptop less than 2 months ago, the problem in question only started happening the past few days where, when playing games (on Steam) my FPS will drop to 10-20FPS instead of it being a consistent 60FPS previous. In Addition, to this I've also noticed in the Task Manager the windows process Desktop Windows Manager is using 80% of my GPU and RAM. Aswell as that my Windows Home screen has become slow and laggy when opening or closing applications.


Things I've tired so far:

  • Ran applications such as Malwarebytes, CCleaner, Kaspersky and Windows defender all didn't detect anything.
  • Used commands in CMD such as DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth , SFC /scannow which both came back with nothing wrong.
  • I turned the Desktop Windows Manager service from high to low pripority.
  • Did a full System restore point to 3 days previous which fixed it for a full day but the problem re occured the next day.
  • Restarted my laptop multiple times with a clean boot.
  • Checked the integrity of the steam client application to make sure it wasn't that.


Any help anyone can give me on the problem that is occuring would be greatly appreciated.
