Can confirm this issue occurred when I moved Windows 10 from 1709 to 1809. No other changes happened.

I currently have issues in video playback now occasionally in chrome (netflix/youtube/twitch) where it skips also. Programs that monitor temperature changes are known to cause deadlock issues and frame skips on nvidia's latest drivers. 417.35 fixed most of those problems for me.

Windows 10 Build 1809.


Final Fantasy Directory was copied from old 1709 build to new fresh 1809 install. All the xbox stuff was turned off on both builds.
