Improving performance and responsiveness of Edge on Windows 11
This browser is no longer supported.
Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
Windows 11 - Back in November, I have update my system to 24H2 version and, after it, I noticed that Edge (the browser that I use the most) was behaving very weird, like some kind of stuttering.
It happens when the hardware acceleartion is enabled; at first, the general usage (but mainly scrolling) feels normal, but after a few minutes it starts slowing, and then stutters a lot (by scrolling some web pages, which is the most noticeable way to identify).
It is fixed by disabling hardware acceleration.

I have this issue too, using an AMD 7900 XTX! It causes stuttering, and having the browser auto-start in the background on log-in was causing PC stutter without me even using Edge.
Disabling hardware acceleration fixed the issue.
An absolute joke.
