ok, i was thinking that maybe they are, even though you arent near them, causing you issues because the extra load they put on the server, and by relation, your system.
One thing to keep in mind, other people arent having this issue, especially at a certain time.
While it COULD be the server and/or code, it’s more likely your computer system.
And im not saying that its underpowered or not good enough, just listen for a sec…
Windows schedules things to be done at certain times, most of this is automated, and you never know its even going on.
Go to windows search and type Task Scheduler.
Open the program.
In the left column, click on Task Scheduler Library.
Now in the middle upper section, you will see all the automated tasks that windows will perform for itself AND installed app/programs.
Start by looking for anything thats executing a task during the times you mentioned the issues.
If/when you find some, right click & disable them.
To be honest, for the best overall performance disable everything that has to do with google update, Graphics card update(nvidia/AMD), Microsoft Edge update, Crash report send times, and anything related to antivirus scans.
You may have more that could be removed, depending on whats installed on your PC.
Essentially you want anything attempting updates, checks, reports, etc while you are gaming to be disabled, and its always better to manually update these as you need.
For example when you launch google, it will tell you that it needs updated.
After youve done all that… i recommend uninstalling any antivirus you have, keep the installer… and every once in awhile reinstall it, do a thorough scan, then uninstall again. Repeat as needed.
Then theres 2 programs i recommend you download & install…
The first being “Cleanup by steven gould”
This is a basic cleaning program to safely remove uneeded files, junk, obsolete stuff, etc…
Then download and install CCleaner… You want to run the cleaner, and run the registry repair, and the “fix windows issues” part.
Once youre done, you can delete CCleaner as you dont want its active element running in the background using up resources. You can keep Cleanup by steven gould if you would like… it doesnt have an active running element… both have been around for about 20 years and are trustworthy.
After all that, restart your system, test the game, and let me know if it helped any for you! Good Luck.
