Nvidia Games tearing heavily in full screen but not in window mode
I have lately had few major windows updates on my laptop that is dual graphics and have a gtx 1050 ti card then I realized that all games I have started tearing heavily , so i started playing with Nvidia drivers switching between them back and forth but nothing , then by trials i realized that this ends if i switched a game into window mode or enable vertical sync in games that supports such option .
Now while this seems like a solution some what , i understand that in such condition i lose frame rates and add extra processing strain , and yet v-sync is usually made to fix tearing issues when running games at 60+ fps which is not my case since i run games at high settings and mostly achieve 13~17 fps tops where every frame counts plus not all games have v-sync option to tweak , so is there a way to put things back to normal ?
PS I had a program named GameGain that does certain tweaks to boost graphics pre the windows updates , at first I had doubts it might be the cause so i cancelled its tweaks and uninstalled it but the tearing remained , so not sure if this had to do with my issue but i thought to hint it in case someone had similar issues using it or so to report .
