Game started to freeze/stutter

Still the same issue going on

Still suffering from this issue since last HOTS patch. Game has become unplayable.

Bumping because still broken.

same problem hereā€¦

same problem. tried most solutions and nothing works. Can we actually get solutions, not just be asked to offer more data and be offered generic ā€œtry this it might workā€ ?

Me and my wife have the exact same issue.
I wouldnā€™t expect this to be fixed any time soon.

I managed to fix this issue by disabling Nvidea Shadowplay. No more frame drops/stuttering so far and has been a week or two.

Nvidia Shadowplay disabled
Nvidea in-game overlay disabled
Nvidia drivers updated to version 3.18.0.102

Issue persisting; I do a game vs ai to check every day if the stutter appears it is there 100% of the games since 24-03.

Thinking of filming the whole thing with the phone as it is super annoying.
Game is unplayable for me at this stage on this machine.

Sounds very familiar problem that I had as well around 2 weeks ago but managed to fix it. I made a post on us forums when I was looking the solution to fix the problem, you can check it here https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/heroes/t/huge-frame-drops-and-1-sec-freeze/17217/11

Anyway, I got it fixed by updating my OS (Windows 10) MANUALLY, you can update your Windows 10 by going to Settings ā†’ Update & Security and then clicking the Check for Updates button. After that just update, itā€™s gonna take a while. That did the trick for me.

Decided to check if some people still have this problem, shouldā€™ve probably post this sooner hereā€¦ hopefully this will fix your problem too!

Wut, that actually worked, thank you. But why it always has to be HOTS that has problems? Thank you man.

Some games actually had some issues on performance with the march Windows update, so itā€™s just not HOTS!
