Windows update caused drop in frames...

All, I play a game called world of warships. After overclocking my monitor to 70hz, and with a 1080ti, I regularly hit 69/70hz on the game with my 2k BenQ monitor. 

Ok, then comes some major Windows 10 update, that happened just recently (two days ago or so). I then run the game and the frames are down in the 40s and lower. The game is now unplayable for me.

No other changes that I can think of. 

 

Also note: my start menu went back to the original configuration, with bloatware and all.

Any ideas?

The bigger Windows Updates seems to give many people problems on GPU related activities, at least for nvidia cards. Usually a re-install of the driver fixes it.

Setup your Active Hours!

 

Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > Change active hours.

 

Define a time range that you don't want Windows to start installing updates on you, restart on you, or bugs you.
