Issues fixed

Stuttering issues

Instruction

Once the free memory is exhausted, performance takes a big hit - games with heavy caching like BF1 suffer horribly. The only way to fix it previously was restarting the computer (thus clearing the memory), which explains why it was only happening after a while and not on a fresh boot. Download EmptyStandbyList and put it somewhere where you won't move it Right click > Properties and select Run as Admin under compatibility. Open Task Scheduler > Create Task on the far right General Tab (give it a name). Under security options > Change user or group > Advanced > Find Now > go down and choose SYSTEM (important to make it run silently in the background). Tick 'Run with highest privileges' and 'Hidden' at the bottom. Pictures here Triggers tab > New > On a schedule > One Time. Tick repeat task every 5 minutes (possibly excessive but it causes no issues). Also choose 'for the duration of: indefinitely' Actions tab > Start A program > Point to the EmptyStandbyList.exe file. Done! Standby memory is automatically cleared every 5mins.

Use InSpectre
May lower stuttering and FPS issues on configurations with low RAM and weak CPU. Restart needed after changes. Your system will be vulnerable for Spectre and Meltdown.

Disable "Control Flow Guard" in Windows Defender
Use this instruction and choose executable. Don't turn off CFG globally - it's a major security breach.
