PSA: Gigabyte App Center (adjustservice.exe service) causes stuttering in games

just figured this out the other day, also got confirmed by another gigabyte owner

  • Reboot to UEFI BIOS shutdown /r /fw -t 0
  • Go to Settings > IO Ports > App Center Download & Install Configuration > Disable
  • then simply uninstall App Center from Add or remove programs
  • to be sure that everyhing is uninstalled you can
  • delete adjustservice.exe with sc stop MyService1 && sc delete MyService1 (open command prompt as admin)
  • then delete the C:\Program files\Gigabyte\App Center folder, it might be under (x86)

gigabyte seem to be lazy calling the adjust service for MyService1
