FPS Booster

A curated set of tweaks to reduce bloat, unlock performance plans, and tune system priorities. Read carefully and proceed at your own risk.

Tip: Create a System Restore Point before making registry or power settings changes.

Chris Titus Tech Utility (Debloat / Tweak)

Launch PowerShell as Administrator and run the following one‑liner to open the interactive utility. Choose sensible debloat and tweaks. Avoid removing features you use.

iwr -useb https://christitus.com/win | iex

Step‑by‑Step: Debloat with DBLOW Utility

These steps summarize the walkthrough from the referenced video. The tool is interactive and safe when you read each option. You can revert many tweaks later.

  1. Open PowerShell (Admin).
  2. Paste the command below and press Enter to launch the utility.
iwr -useb https://christitus.com/win | iex
  1. When the window opens, go to the Tweaks tab.
  2. Under Essential Tweaks, choose Desktop or Laptop based on your device. Hover each item to read its description.
  3. Under Advanced Tweaks, be cautious and avoid the following unless you are sure:
    • Block Adobe Network — skip this if you use Adobe websites or cloud features.
    • Set display to performance — can degrade visual quality noticeably.
    • Remove all Microsoft Store apps — can remove useful tools (e.g., Snipping Tool) you may rely on.
  4. Click Run Tweaks. Wait a few minutes until the confirmation indicates it’s finished.

Enable Ultimate Performance Power Plan

Adds the hidden “Ultimate Performance” plan (desktop only on some SKUs). Run in an elevated Command Prompt or PowerShell.

powercfg -duplicatescheme e9a42b02-d5df-448d-aa00-03f14749eb61

After running, open Power Options → Show additional plans → select Ultimate Performance.

Priority Tweaks (Registry Locations)

You can review and adjust these keys to bias foreground games and reduce multimedia throttling. Change values only if you know what they do.

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile\Tasks\Games
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\PriorityControl
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile
Common values people tweak:
  • Win32PrioritySeparation (PriorityControl): favors foreground responsiveness vs. background throughput.
  • SystemResponsiveness (SystemProfile): lower values can prioritize gaming over background tasks.
  • NetworkThrottlingIndex (SystemProfile): set to ffffffff to disable throttling (hex).

How to Undo

  • Use System Restore to revert a restore point.
  • Switch your Power Plan back to Balanced in Power Options.
  • In the Titus utility, re-run and choose the revert options where available.
  • For registry edits, export keys before changing them so you can import to restore.
