[SOLVED] Feature Update to version 22H2 broke Windows Update + other things

After months of waiting - Windows Update finally offered to upgrade to 22H2 (from 21H2). The upgrade succeeded without a hitch, however, I quickly discovered that various operating system functionality broke thereafter. How unfortunate... because I was fortunate enough to not have updates break...

[SOLVED] Yet another high DPC latency thread (Wdf0100.sys, tcpip.sys). After some hours the network slows down. FIX: uninstall malwarebytes (until they fix it)

Thank you so much for all your help! If you don't mind - please leave this thread unlocked and I'll post a follow-up once Malwarebytes fixes the issue on their end. I have a 5 year license for their software and I'd like to eventually be able to use it again... (as I'm sure many others would...

Bingo - we have found the culprit! It was Malwarebytes. Coincidentally, I found a month old thread on Malwarebytes forum with someone describing similar slowdown issues (OP's issues began around the same time as mine did): Malwarebytes is slowing Windows PCs, I'd like to know why I think it is...

Very interesting! These drivers haven't been pushed via Windows Update yet. I will manually install and report back.

[SOLVED] Yet another high DPC latency thread (Wdf0100.sys, tcpip.sys). After some hours the network slows down. FIX: uninstall malwarebytes (until they fix it)

I'm on the latest set of drivers and firmware (for all system components). They are always pushed via Windows Updates for this device... I'm also using Intel USB 3.0 drivers instead of the generic Microsoft ones. Intel drivers are significantly more optimized for my xHCI controller. It is sort...

LatencyMon looks almost worse, however. 😕

Still happening with all offload settings disabled, but slightly less severe. Do you need a new trace?

Recorded new LatencyMon after a reboot, and also after idling overnight. After a fresh restart: After PC has been left idling overnight - latency becomes unbearable and audio starts skipping and glitching:

Update: After leaving the PC idle overnight, latency issues creep up again the next day, but not as severe. There is some noticeable improvement after applying the above network tweaks and the Ethernet adapter is no longer spiking as much as it used to. Do you need a new trace to determine the...

I have applied the settings you suggested. (I used a popular tool for modifying the parameters. I left all other values on default). I will give you an update after the PC has been left idling overnight (because that's when the problems typically arise). Also - may I ask what your line of...

If it's of any more assistance to you, I'd like to share my undervolting settings, along with a few other tweaks that are currently running on my system. This configuration and tweaks have never given me problems before, but as I have mentioned in my first post - I'm almost fully certain that...
