Troubleshooting Unity Game Freezes on Windows 11

Your gaming moment has arrived!
3. Monitor Temperatures
Overheating can lead to performance throttling and freezes. Use tools like HWMonitor to track CPU and GPU temperatures.
4. Optimize In-Game Settings
- Lower graphics settings such as resolution, texture quality, and shadows.
- Disable V-Sync if enabled, as it can sometimes cause stutters.
5. Manage Running Processes
Ensure no background processes are consuming significant CPU or memory resources while gaming. Use Task Manager to close unnecessary processes.
6. Test Game Integrity
If the game continues to freeze, verify the integrity of game files through the game launcher or reinstall the game.
7. Check Event Viewer
Use Windows Event Viewer to check for any application or system logs that might indicate an error related to the freeze.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can potentially identify the cause of the freezing issue and take appropriate steps to resolve it.
