Guild Wars 2, Starcraft 2 - Frame Problems

• Are you experiencing the issue with all of your games? Yes, I have only 2 games: Starcraft 2 and Guild Wars 2
• Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the affected games? Yes, multiple times, tried repairing them aswell, contacted support and everything possible.

Step 1: Switch off Game DVR. - I have done it already, doesn't help.

Step 2: Disable Game bar - Same thing as Step 1.Step 3: Manually update graphics card drivers. - Didn't help either.

@Wilfred Mac - I have contacted your support last night and requested an email to guide me through uninstalling and going back to the previous build of Windows - in this case 1709. Although it says that 1709 was installed
back something went completely wrong in the middle of January.

Please send me an email on how to uninstall version 1709 and go back to 1703, since it's the only and last action I can take to solve this issue.
