for certain games in windows 11, tabbing in and out makes me have to wait through a black screen for about four seconds each time (ive seen claims this is from the refresh rate or resolution changing?). ive found this to hamper my entire daily user experience by making it feel sluggish and tedious, since i play these games often. after scrounging around online and finding many different solutions that did and didnt work for different people, setting the scaling mode to either "integer scaling" or "no scaling" seemed to solve the issue
however, after turning my pc back on the next morning, my problem was back, and this fix no longer worked. i did a clean reinstall of my graphics drivers, which fixed it again, but THIS morning its returned once more. what confuses me the most is that i tested turning power cycling my machine yesterday, and my alt-tabbing remained fine, so it seems like it takes a certain amount of time before breaking. i get the strong impression its very hard to keep this behaviour at bay for good; many of the experiences reported by others around search results i mentioned seemed to imply it almost inevitably comes back some mysterious way or another
ps: for some programs (eduke32) this makes my hdr very washed out. it has to be fixed by toggling it off and on in windows settings
specs:
27gl850-b monitor, 1440p@144hz
rtx 2080 (though i'll be upgrading to a 3080 10gb soon)
core i9 9900k
2x8 ddr4
