could you maybe record this happening?

[gray badge]

yeah sure

im trying to find a way to actually show the lag

bc its kinda gonna be hard to show by the recording

its kinda hard to tell by video. but in person its like slow and choppy.

i tried to see if its nvidia slowing it down by one of its settings where it caps the fps on outside applications when playing a game which thats not what it was. and i wasnt even in a game when i recorded it so it wouldnt be because of nvidia settings.

[gray badge]

help.

[charred lantern]

What lag?

[gray badge]

well its hard to show in a video

but its like laggy

slow.

[dark anvil]

well how can it not be laggy in the video but outside of the video it is?

im a bit confused

[gray badge]

idk??

but what im seeing

its laggy af

well ima try to uninstall and reinstall

nope still laggy

[charred lantern]

What’s your cpu, GPU, and ram usage?

I’m thinking it may be a hardware issue since there’s no visible lag when you screen record and doing a fresh install of the app doesn’t solve your problem.

[gray badge]

let me check that

i mean i was having some problems with my gpu but wouldnt my other apps be laggy too?

like i have a pretty good setup

i got a 4060, ryzen 7 7700x, 32 gb of ram

[charred lantern]

Not necessarily. Could be some kind of driver issue. Similar to if a certain game doesn’t work for shit if you’ve got a bad driver.

[gray badge]

true. i was having driver issues and i removed all of the drivers from the gpu and reinstalled them and it seems to be working now but still dont know why wootility is still slow. and when i was having those driver issues wootility was slow and its still slow

so idk whats up with my computer or with the app

the app still works its just very laggy so i may have to deal with it ig lmao

[charred lantern]

Just use the web app if you’ve got a chromium browser

[tranquil basin]

Got the exact same issue

[mellow steeple]

Can you show the memory usage/cpu usage of the app when open?

[gray badge]

its the picture above

and the specs are up there too

i can get an updated picture hold

[mellow steeple]

Of the app, not your PC

[gray badge]

oh ok

like the quick settings?

[mellow steeple]

no, the performance of the app, task manager and just the CPU, Memory, Disk etc OF the app

[gray badge]

ohhh okay got it

[mellow steeple]

interesting

i wonder what it could be tbh

why don’t you just use the web v5?

[charred lantern]

No need to use v5.wootility.io. v5 is stable release at https://wootility.io

[wide slate]

Which is... V5 Wootility

[charred lantern]

Yeah but I was getting prompts when v5 went stable saying not to use the beta version from v5.wootility.io anymore

[wide slate]

No one provided a link. You made a correction for something that was never in debate to begin with.

[gray badge]

its easier just to open the app then going to google and typing it in

but is there any fixes to this?

[wide slate]

Until you can show the issue, I wouldn't hold my breath.

Record it with your phone instead of screen capture?

[gray badge]

smart

hold

gotta close my game out

[mellow steeple]

Literally, I was like ?

Website is easier anyways, no need to fill your PC w an app that doesn’t need to exist

Way better to have less clog :)

On windows, open settings > system > display > advanced display settings [ ensure that dynamic refresh rate is disabled] > go back to display > graphics > add desktop app > [in the file explorer url bar, paste: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Programs\wootility] > Double click Wootility > Select wootility in settings, and set GPU preference to specific and select your discrete graphics card.

[gray badge]

ill try this when im back home from work thank you

also would this also work with wallpaper engine? because i realize that its also laggy. way more laggy than wootility

[wild lion]

Try just with the wooting app first, if it fixes it, load up BIOS and disable iGPU. If it doesn't fix the issue, I suggest either doing a fresh install of Windows, or reinstalling GPU drivers with DDU

[mellow steeple]

But then again, all of that, just for nothing, when you could just use V5.

[mellow steeple]

Oh yeah

If its that, then yes, try doing that

Make sure you also change wallpaper engine to have admin privileges too :P

[wild lion]

they're on v5

latest stable ver

[mellow steeple]

the web version* to declutter their pc from random apps lmao

i’d rather have a web app than a normal app for something like my periraphals

i can’t SPELL WTF

[wild lion]

they said they prefer the application #1346698445548945408 message.

by looking at the download dir it's running electron (I think). It's likely just a Hardware Acceleration thing

[gray badge]

didnt work

[gray badge]

trying the bios thing rn

i dont have igpu in bios

would it be dgpu instead?

[wild lion]

Nope. What motherboard make and model

If I don’t reply do this: reinstall graphics card drivers and check the fresh install button

[gray badge]

I got a Gigabyte B650 Gaming X AX V2

i would try to do the reinstalll graphic drivers

but i fucked up last time

[wild lion]

In what way?

Download DDU

boot in safe mode
(Win + R > type “msconfig” > Boot tab > select safe boot and reboot (do the same steps to disable safe boot))

Launch DDU (unzip and run)

Disable safe boot

Download GPU drivers from nvidia app or manually. I suggest you let windows auto install the drivers before attempting to install the up to date ones

[gray badge]

i did the steps in DDU like 3 weeks ago and it made me had problems with my drivers even more. so i attempted to fix it and i think my drivers are okay for now idk. i dont know much about pcs

do i download gpu drivers while in safe mode

or

[wild lion]

You'll be fine downloading the drivers in regular mode

Let me check the settings available for ur bios 1 sec

[wild lion]

Use the nvidia app/experience and reinstall the GPU driver, also download the AMD APU chipset driver https://www.gigabyte.com/us/Motherboard/B650-GAMING-X-AX-V2-rev-1x/support#support-dl-driver-chipset

[gray badge]

ok now what

actually

[wild lion]

did you reinstall GPU drivers and install AMD APU chipset

[gray badge]

i think it worked\

[wild lion]

did it?

[gray badge]

yes

[wild lion]

epicc

[gray badge]

let me make sure

its fixed and it also fixed the lag with my wallpaper engine app lag aswell

thank u!!

[wild lion]

you're welcome : )

[gray badge]

now just gotta test my games to make sure those also work

[wild lion]

All good now?

[gray badge]

looks like it
