Automatic Window Optimization in Windows 11/10 || Should you disable it or not?

Window Auto-Tuning is a networking feature that has been part of Windows 10 and earlier versions for many years. It is designed to dynamically control the receive throughput buffer size and latency of a connection. In today's Internet, there are countless latency and speed settings that are simply too numerous to adjust manually and need to be controlled dynamically – that's why auto-tuning exists.

Since the release of the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, many users have reported slow internet connections after installing the update. Many websites have also pointed out that the problem is caused by “Window Auto-Tuning” and that disabling this feature will improve speed performance. This is absolutely not true.

Microsoft has released a statement pointing out that disabling automatic optimization will definitely limit your internet speed and won't improve it in the slightest. The company also says that the feature is uniform across all modern operating systems, not just Windows, and you shouldn't disable it.
