Guys, its not GGG's fault, its Microsoft, everyone roll back to 23h2, you cant? Well, unlucky, reinstall whole system to play our game. 200 poe coins will be transfered to your stash after posting this. (please don't forget to delete the last sentence)

Weird, I don't have any problem with the other games that I play.

It's only PoE2.

You have problems to read it seems, like a lot of other people on here. Where did you get this wrong information from, that PoE1/2 is the only game on the market doing this? It is the complete opposite.

MOST modern games, or games with high CPU core (multithreading) utility will do this with 24h2 especially on Ryzen CPUs. Running Eve Online multibox, multiple Ubisoft games, just google Windows 24h2 freeze reddit/steam, and you will find HUNDREDS of posts for MULTIPLE games with the exact same issue.

Setting core affinity -2 cores PLUS disable SMT/HT in bios (you need to do both) WoNT FIX THIS, but causing the PC not to freeze, just PoE will crash, and you can restart the game. People just cant read properly in this thread. It is IMPORTANT that you disable REAL cores with affinity, not virtual SMT/HT cores this way.

If you want it get fixed, reinstall Windows 11 22h2 or 23h2.

You have problems to read. Plenty of people on 23H2 still having the issue. I already tested the game on 3 different pc setups, 1 of them was on 23H2. The other 2 are on Win 10 and Win 11 24H2 (desktop and a laptop)
