Should I disable VBS in Windows 11?
Not sure if it's causing the lag spikes I've been getting in CPU bound games ever since moving over to Windows 11 from 10. I want to undervolt to further address the thermal throttling I'm getting, but I need VBS disabled to do that. I have re-applied thermal paste and removed the dust build-up, but that's not enough for my gaming laptop. According to online benchmarks, the average and max fps will go up by 5-15% although some have claimed that they have lag spikes gone if disabled.
I know my PC is getting old by turning 5 years old soon, but I think it shouldn't be this weak. I do browse the web with Brave, don't visit suspicious websites nor download malicious files, connected to a VPN at all times, and protect my accounts with 2FA and MFA. I am aware that disabling VBS means that malware that targets critical processes have a much higher chance of succeeding if my PC is targetted though. I don't really care about having higher average and max fps; I just want minimum fps to go up and CPU temperature to go down.
