In the Elder Scrolls series, it is the fifth installment, which is available for PlayStation 3, Microsoft Windows, and Xbox 360. Skyrim is a huge success but it has also encountered several technical glitches that have confused gamers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of these problems include extreme lagging in PCs. Let us discuss how you can solve the problem if you are a Skyrim player.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b>Solution 1<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first solution requires visiting the Documents folder. Once you have opened this folder, you will spot the My Games folder. Double-click this folder and you will come across various folders including Skyrim. Open the Skyrim folder and then click the SkyrimPrefs file.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once this file has been opened, use the Control + F shortcut keys combination to enable the search bar. Next, type Gamepad in the search bar and click Find Next. You will find <\/span><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><b>GamepadEnable=1<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Replace 1 with 0 and then click the Find Next button twice until you come across <\/span><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><b>GamepadRumble=1<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Again, change the 1 it to 0. Now save the settings, and click OK. Hopefully, the lagging issue will be resolved, if not, then move ahead to the next solution.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b>Solution 2<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second solution involves changing the power settings. To do this, visit the Control Panel and navigate to the Power Options section. Now click Create a power plan on the extreme left.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A new window will now pop-up, offering several power plans.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stcleaner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/image3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2185\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stcleaner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/image3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"624\" height=\"351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stcleaner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/image3.png 624w, https:\/\/www.stcleaner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/image3-300x169.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Select High performance, provide a name to your plan and click Next.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2186\" class=\"thumbnail wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"width: 634px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stcleaner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/image1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2186\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stcleaner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/image1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"624\" height=\"351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stcleaner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/image1.png 624w, https:\/\/www.stcleaner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/image1-300x169.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"caption wp-caption-text\"><strong>Saving your custom power plan<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click the Put the computer to sleep option, and select Never for both On battery and Plugged in drop-down menus. Click Create to save this plan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Close the window and launch the game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b>Solution 3<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The third solution to fix Skyrim lags requires visiting the Documents folder. Now open the My Games and you shall see the Skyrim folder. Open the Skyrim folder and then double-click the SkyrimPrefs.ini file. Now add up <\/span><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><b>iPresentInterval=0<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to the bottom of the display section.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, make use of the Crimson\u2019s Frame Target Control to limit the game to 60. In most cases, this will solve the lag issue in Skyrim as most of the time the lag issue is due to the ultra-frames required.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b>Solution 4<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the above-mentioned tweaks did not work, try using ST Cleaner. It often happens that the lags occur in games due to junk files. ST Cleaner is the perfect tool for getting rid of junk files with ease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visit the ST Cleaner <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stcleaner.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">official website<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and download it for Windows.
