We need help for this issue. And also, is there someone also got this issue?
When using Cortex games get unplayable. Instead of boosting my FPS, i get frame drops going down to 4 FPS or even lower until I exit Cortex.

Well, Razer Cortex is capable of closing all the processes...

It just can't run the damn game, yay.

I tried to run Dying Light (The first one) Through Razer Cortex (A Game that was on my steam account), it closes everything, says that it liberated almost 3gb of RAM, aaaaaaaaand nothing.

The same happens with my Uplay games and yada yada.

Edit: The game finally opened, it took so long that I actually forgot about it.

For the sake of explaining better, I tried to launch the game around 9pm (Lisbon time), the game only launched now, 12am (Lisbon time), so it has been 3 hours between trying to launch a game using the beta thing and the game actually opening.

Jesus.

How about turn off the auto boost?
That feature makes coretex to activate game booster automatically.

So, if you wanna play game without cortex, just turn off auto boost. It's on left side of "Boost now" button.

Hey there!

Thank you very much for bringing this issue to our attention. I'm Michelle and I am happy to assist you with your concern.

As a Razer Cortex user myself, I understand how frustrating this situation is for you. But not to worry, I will try my best to help you out.

As @samuel2050 suggested, could you please disable the Auto-Boost feature in Razer Cortex > GAME BOOSTER > Auto-Boost, and launch your game from Razer Cortex to see whether this issue is fixed?

For us to further investigate this issue and determine the correct resolution, it would be great if you could provide us with your Razer Cortex logs.

Hello, @Maximusisback! Nice to meet you!

I'm sorry, but there's a problem with this. If we just kill onedrive processes, it could cause some error with online files. (I lost some of my files when I tried it.) So, I don't recommend that method.

Oh I see, sad to see how much microsoft likes to force some processes on users, thankss for the heads up!
And nice to meet you too!
Reporting a couple of issues here.

1. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 will not launch with Cortex running.

2. When I went to the feedback page in Cortex, my feedback on the above would not submit due to a lost internet connection. This is happening even though I am connected to wi-fi.

Hey there!

Thank you for bringing this issue to us. I am happy to be of assistance.

Regarding the issues you mentioned, we will try to reproduce them on our side. To help us further investigate this issue, could you please provide us with your Razer Cortex logs?

Here is a guide on getting your Razer Cortex logs: https://mysupport.razer.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1685

Please feel free to share your logs with us via PM.

To quickly help you start the game, please do not launch it from Razer Cortex, you can launch the game directly with Razer Cortex running on your PC. And see whether the game can be loaded successfully.

We look forward to your reply soon.

We appreciate your patience.

Hey there!

Thank you for participating in our beta program. The FPS overlay will not show in games with anti-cheat software. CS: GO has anti-cheat software. The in-game features are unavailable for this game.

Please feel free to let us know if you need further assistance.

Is there no other way, so that the two can work together. Or can that cause for a ban.

Currently, our team is trying to find a way to resolve this. Please give us more time. We appreciate your understanding and patience regarding this concern.

Will there in the future be an option for more games in booster prime. It works really really well, i get major fps boosts when I use this on Valorant or Paladins. I would love to see it implemented in ubisoft games too (known for being badly optimized). Would also love to see it on COD and CSgo

Hey there!

Thank you for sharing your suggestion here. It is great to know that you like Booster Prime. We have received your feedback on optimizing Ubisoft games. For certain games you want us to support on Booster Prime, you also can submit them on Booster Prime FEEDBACK.

Please check the image attached.

Do let us know if you need further assistance.

FPS overlay might not work in game, but does it keep track of it?
A temporary solution would be to use the game's fps overlay.

Hey there!

Yes. The newest version of Razer Cortex v10.0.244.0 has resolved the FPS track issue. The FPS overlay will not show in-game for some games, but Razer Cortex can generate the FPS chart when you exit the game. Please update your Razer Cortex to the latest version and see whether it works for you.

We are also trying to fix the FPS display issue. We will let our users know when we resolve it.

Appreciate your patience.
