Windows 10: Windows 11 - Keeps going back to desktop when playing games

Hi thereI have seen this problem listed a few times but as I have just installed Windows 11 I am not sure if they are relevant One references a Microsoft app checker and that page does not seem to existWhen I am playing games in full screen mode the system keeps minimising the game after a short period 30 secs to 1 min I would say and minimises the game. I can then expand the game and continue where I left off. This is rendering the games unplayable in reality.This did not happen before the Windows 11 upgrade.Hoping someone can help me as I am now getting very frustrated.Phil

On Edge browser, the bing.com background "video" plays slower than in IE 11

Thanks for the reply.

The steps did not help much.

On my computer (Windows 10, 12GB, I7) I have tried test drive

Result:

• Noticeably choppy on IE 11 and Edge,
• I can not blame the OS or Hardware because the test drive game plays smooth on FF and Chrome on the computer

My other computer which has IE 11 on Windows 7 plays the flight game very smooth.

Thanks.
