Comment on Kill dwm.exe on Windows for less input lag and better performance

Comments

I wonder what other tools are there to track Windows 10/11 performance and kill -unneeded services/ - I miss those lean Windows builds.

Sometimes you get sluggish performance context switching app windows.

Task Manager and Resource Monitor shows that everything looks okay

- CPU - Memory - Disk - Network All running at less than 20% - yet computer feels sluggish switching apps.

What is interesting is that two computers with seemingly similar hardware - same corporate issue manufacturer can have different performance.

Surely there is something in SysInternals to help track down this issue.
