When Windows 11 was released, Microsoft turned on the virtualization-based security (VBS) feature of Windows 11 and Windows 11 by default, and this feature has been proven to reduce computer performance according to research.
The method to manually shut down the VBS service is as follows:
Open the Windows terminal (administrator) - enter the bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off command - press Enter to confirm - restart the computer
According to research, after VBS is turned off for most games, the game frame rate increases by 2.1% in 4K and 5.3% in 1080p medium quality. That is, the lower the resolution and the lower the image quality, the greater the difference.
Among them, "Microsoft Flight Simulator" has the greatest impact, with an increase of 11.2% in 1080p low image quality. The other three sets of settings also increased by about 9%. The most exaggerated one is "Total War: Warhammer 3". The improvement in 1080p high-definition reached an exaggerated 37.7%, and in 2K high-definition it also reached 28.6%!
Disabling VBS will bring some security risks to your PC. Although it is minimal to ordinary players, players should consider it carefully.
