tommy456 12 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 I recently discovered that Gaming mode is no longer working, the eset tray icon used to change colour when gaming mode was active, i have even set a delay and no changing of colour, and also the logging of updates and sending annon stats stops, the checking for updates in the main GUI window indicates that eset is still checking hourly for updates , i thought that gaming mode when active suppressed all alerts and checking for updates ?

Administrators Marcos 5,231 Posted April 8, 2018 Administrators Share Posted April 8, 2018 Whether Gamer mode switches on/off automatically shouldn't be determined by the change of the icon color if it is done quick enough. Did you experience a lag or some other issues while playing a game which could be attributed to ESET being updated at that time? Also you didn't mention what version you have currently installed.

tommy456 12 Posted April 8, 2018 Author Share Posted April 8, 2018 (edited) Version 11.1.47.0 installed, As for the gaming mode not working, even if I tab (alt tab) out of a game stream video to my TV which is my second monitor, there is no sign of it working, previous version 11.059.9 i would see the icon change colour as well as the GUI from amber to green (normal colour) when reverting from watching a video on my pc monitor in full-screen mode, and whilst streaming to the tv it used to activate gaming mode ie turn GUI amber not doing this now, and why is it still checking for definition updates ? all that is suppost to stop when gaming mode is active, But i am unable to pin any obvvious issues with games on Eset smart mode not working, but there again i do have performance hardware so it wouldn't be as obvious to me as perhaps with someone on a budget gaming pc with lower end hardware PS , the delay that you can set in the gamer mode, didn't that used to keep gaming mode switched on after you exited the full-screen app for the lenght of time you specified?
