Chrome and Edge flickering/lagging on second monitor (MSI GE75, RTX 2070) - Firefox works fine
Hello. I have an issue with my MSI GE75 laptop running Windows 11 with an RTX 2070. When I use a second monitor Dell connected via HDMI, content inside Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome starts flickering and lagging. Firefox works fine on the same setup. The laptop is MSI GE75 with RTX 2070 and Intel iGPU. The second monitor is a Dell. Browsers affected are Edge and Chrome. Browser not affected is Firefox. I set Edge and Chrome to run on the RTX 2070 in Windows graphics settings. All drivers are updated. All settings are on maximum. The issue is flickering and micro freezes while scrolling or playing videos on the second monitor. This does not happen on the main laptop display. I already tried switching Edge and Chrome to High performance GPU RTX 2070 in Windows settings with no effect. I updated NVIDIA and Intel drivers with no effect. I disabled hardware acceleration in Edge and Chrome which reduces the issue but performance drops. I set both monitors to the same refresh rate 60 Hz but the problem persists. Since the problem only happens with Chromium based browsers and only on the second monitor, I suspect it could be related to how Microsoft rendering pipeline interacts with Chromium hardware acceleration. Firefox which uses a different rendering backend works fine. My questions are: Why does this only happen with Chromium based browsers but not Firefox? Is this related to how Windows and Chromium handle GPU acceleration on a second monitor? Is there a known fix or workaround to make Edge and Chrome work properly on the second monitor? Thank you in advance for any advice.
Windows 11
Windows 11 OS has been the most useless upgrade of Microsoft with highest number of bugs. Mid performance laptops like dell 5510,i5 11th gen(nvidia mx450) which in my case also cannot run smoothly on windows 11. I have got a ton of issues on gpu, display and bugs where display rendering issues and blue screen error messages appear. Even the dark mode sucks. Biggest downfall for Microsoft in terms of stability 👎🏻
--js-flags=--noexpose_wasm launch flag causes STATUS_BREAKPOINT
Version 135.0.3179.73 (Official build) (64-bit), Windows 11 Education, also occurs on Windows 10 Education and Windows 10 Pro, been testing this since probably version 129 of Edge. --js-flags=--noexpose_wasm as a launch flag causes STATUS_BREAKPOINT, this is regardless of default configuration and with or without extensions. WASM can be used to discover privileged information about a machine, and this seems to be working in the past according to some users online, but no longer does now. Please can someone advise?
Edge error RESULT_CODE_MISSING_DATA or RESULT_CODE_KILLED_BAD_MESSAGE even in the settings menu.
After the KB5050021 (Windows 11 (23H2)) update, Edge stopped working. The same error appears on all tabs and even in the settings: Error code: RESULT_CODE_MISSING_DATA. I deleted the update, but Edge still didn't work. Edge only partially worked in compatibility mode with Windows 8. Does anyone know what the problem could be? Without compatibility, the error is either RESULT_CODE_MISSING_DATA or RESULT_CODE_KILLED_BAD_MESSAGE, and on any tabs and even in the settings menu. Edge Version 134.0.3124.93 (Official Build) (64-bit) DEV/BETA/CAN also don't work with the same errors. UDP. After the KB5053602 (Windows 11 (23H2)) update, Edge still not working. Is there a solution to this problem?Notepad typing problem from spellcheck I suppose
After upgraded to Windows 11, the new Notepad and other MS apps I use I observed the new functionality to save the file and to have it after restart, even if not saved. That's ok. But, using daily notepad, and typing a lot sometimes in it, I observed a bug recently. Because I blind-type, I observed when typing some characters did not appear, even if I certainly typed them. Normally I just ignored and insisted to type the missing character(s). But after a time because this phenomenon repeated, I tried to view what can be the problem. In MS Word all normal. But in notepad it kept not registering some characters ...and that randomly, not because maybe I have a keyboard problem. Not at all. I tested that also. As I said, in MS Word all normal, but in notepad not. I observed also that the spell check works in the new notepad, but you don't have the possibility to activate/deactivate or simply change the language from the app config. I assume they are simply inherited from the Windows 11 general configs. So after that, I supposed that this could be the problem. More exactly the source of the problem could be the spell-check. And I explain. For a simple test, I made a new notepad file and in that new notepad file I didn't had typing problem ...till some time. I say this, because I use a "note" notepad file every day, adding things always on top of it. So after some time it became big (at least big for a notepad point of view). So I suppose the typing problem in notepad is ...when it became big the spellcheck is allways trying to recheck all content and till not finishing the recheck the typing doesn't work normally (because in background the system is "occupied" with something else that is prioritized - i.e. with spell checking all the big file content). I assume that in MS Word the things are differently, and it does not recheck allways all the content, or maybe has different resources allocated for that process so that it doesn't kill, or suspend sometimes, the typing process. Corect me if I am wrong. But that is what I observed. PS. As a solution for me for that, I began to use for the big files the MS Word again, and for notepad olnly small files or opening new file for typing something ocassionally and then just copy/paste what I just typed back in the big file.
When is Microsoft going to bring Microsoft Authenticator windows aka desktop or within edge itself?
When is Microsoft going to bring Microsoft Authenticator windows aka desktop or within edge itself? (People like me lose mobiles) Isn't Windows device considered anything? Only mobiles and android and iOS devices matter? People like don't store important info on Windows devices? Edge has support for in-built password manager like chrome with chrome and google passwords then why is edge not having 2fa support on windows yet in 2024? Is windows still usable if my phones goes for service center, dies randomly, or is stolen? Can I consider windows devices to be of valuable in 2024 or should I shift 100 percent to android and MacOS and ios? Should I throw my windows devices out of window since it is not dependent device when any other fails? On a sidenote, I tried checking out but WinAuth Authenticator exists for Windows PC is open-source & offers 2-step verification (but unfortunately not updated since 2016) so why Microsoft which focuses so much of AI of everything has been able to bring desktop version for windows users? Or am I asking too much in the name of security and privacy that big tech promotes all the time? Can we trust microsoft and windows devices? Or is everything going to be done by google and chrome?DWM (Desktop Window Manager) Gameinput.dll Xbox controller crash after controller sleep wakeup
Hey, There is the following issue with Xbox controllers connected with Windows 11 via Xbox Wireless adapter (maybe also via BT not sure), that if the controller enters sleep mode after x minutes, and youre in a game or using Microsoft Edge (for example Xbox cloud streaming) and wake up the controller, there is high chance, DWM will crash with faulty module gameinput.dll, the game running also crashing, and you cant connect the Xbox controller anymore, (it will turn off the moment you connect and press a button), until you restart Windows. You can see here a lot of other people having the same issue: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/xbox-wireless-adaptor-appcrash-dwmexe-fault-module/88a0c9a8-7629-4e67-9420-440ab30e2991?page=1 Beschreibung Name der fehlerhaften Anwendung: dwm.exe, Version: 10.0.22621.1635, Zeitstempel: 0x6201aae6 Name des fehlerhaften Moduls: gameinput.dll, Version: 0.2204.22621.1848, Zeitstempel: 0x1f22cecc Ausnahmecode: 0xc0000005 Fehleroffset: 0x000000000000eee5 ID des fehlerhaften Prozesses: 0x0x790 Startzeit der fehlerhaften Anwendung: 0x0x1D9DD89C1F7BD7E Pfad der fehlerhaften Anwendung: C:\Windows\system32\dwm.exe Pfad des fehlerhaften Moduls: c:\windows\system32\gameinput.dll Berichtskennung: 7354f7b8-5a92-4d1d-bb7b-a25c7436494f Vollständiger Name des fehlerhaften Pakets: Anwendungs-ID, die relativ zum fehlerhaften Paket ist: There is also another issue with gameinput, that it reconfigures itself everysingle time when you reboot the pc: Would be nice if someone could deliver these two issues to the internal team working on Xbox / Gameinput and DWM. Thank you very muchMicrosoft Edge name when pinned to the Windows 11 Start Menu
Currently when Microsoft Edge is pinned to the Start Menu the name appears only as 'Edge' (the ShortDisplayName in VisualElementsManifest.xml). Everywhere else I've looked the application is always referred to as 'Microsoft Edge' in full (taskbar name, documentation, application menu etc..). I'm just wondering if this could be considered a bug? Or is this behavior intended? Thanks
