5 Safe Registry Tweaks to Boost FPS on Windows 11 (2025 Gaming Guide)

You have debloated your Windows 11, but your games still feel stuttery. The problem might not be your hardware, but how Windows manages resources.

By default, Windows is optimized for battery life and office work, not gaming. In this guide, we will edit the Windows Registry (Regedit) to force the OS to prioritize your games over background tasks.

Warning: Always create a System Restore point before touching the Registry!

Want higher FPS without buying a new GPU? Apply these 5 safe Windows Registry tweaks to disable throttling and prioritize games on Windows 11

1. Disable Network Throttling

Windows intentionally limits network traffic for non-media tasks. For online gaming, we want full speed.

  • Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile
  • Value: NetworkThrottlingIndex
  • Data: Set to ffffffff (Hexadecimal).

2. System Profile Priority

Tell the CPU to give maximum attention to games.

  • Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile\Tasks\Games
  • Change GPU Priority to 8.
  • Change Priority to 6.
  • Change Scheduling Category to High.

3. Disable GameDVR (Latency Killer)

Even if you turn off Game Bar in settings, some background services still run.

  • Path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\GameConfigStore
  • Value: GameDVR_Enabled -> Set to 0.
  • Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\GameDVR
  • Value: AllowGameDVR -> Set to 0.
