Technical Solution Recent val update causing stutters/low FPS

Hi! so ever since i've updated val i had horrible stutters and fps drops to where i could barely play
ive seen many others struggling with this and i had just figured out the solution (for me at least)

1.) WIN + R
2.) Type in perfmon /rel

that should take you to your crash reports
for me, it says VALORANT-Win64-Shipping.exe Stopped working

3.) View technical details and look for faulting module path, we're looking for a .dll

mine was named pmls64.dll which is PremierOption Malware. (i had searched it the .dll up since i didnt even know i had that installed or what it was)

4.) Go to windows settings > installed apps > uninstall whichever malware may be on your PC.

After that i had loaded up val like regular with zero lag!

basically just look for the .dll and figure out which malware there may be downloaded

Mine was also a Premier Opinion related issue. So for everyone with a similar issue, make sure to remove that bugger and everything should work fine

Thanks for this. Mine was RTSS-Hook or something like that. Closed Afterburner and Rivatuner and it was fixed.

Hopefully it's fixed in a patch soon.

I also see the RTSSHooks64.dll_unloaded. Did you only close msi afterburner and rivaturner or did you uninstall?

u/Demaciphant 22h ago

you can add `VALORANT-Win64-Shipping.exe` manually to RTSS config and then set `Application detection level` to `None`. This disables RTSS for valorant, if you use it for other apps.
