In others words, Windows 10 now comes with its own build-in gameplay booster, eliminating the need for third-party programs.

Speaking of games, many Windows 10 Creators Update players have already confirmed that this OSboosts game FPSby 4% on average.

Unfortunately, the Windows 10 Creators Update gaming experience has been a bumpy ride for many players. More specifically, games often crash or are affected byvarious other issueson Windows 10 Creators Update.

I just updated to the Windows 10 Creators Update (Version 1703, Build 15063), and Forza Horizon 3 no longer loads. When I start the game, I see the Playground Games and Turn 10 Studios animations, and then I get to the screen that has the slideshow of cars and says “Press Enter/A to Continue”. When I hit to continue, it says “Loading, Please Wait”, and then nothing ever happens. […] the game says “Loading, Please Wait” indefinitely.

It appears that the culprit is theXbox Game DVR, a tool that allows players to record and share game videos and screenshots. The Creators Update enables the Xbox DVR by default.
