5. Right-click HD-Player.exe → New → Key → name it: PerfOptions
   Right-click PerfOptions → New → DWORD (32-bit) Value → name it: CpuPriorityClass
6. Set CpuPriorityClass = 3 to give BlueStacks high CPU priority.

Step 2: Edit BlueStacks Configuration​

1. Close BlueStacks /MSI completely.
2. Go to: C:\ProgramData\BlueStacks_nxt\bluestacks.conf
   • Open with Notepad++.
   • Set:
   • bst.max_fps=120
     bst.feature.rooting=1
     and other root features to 1 and fps values to same fps you increase
   • Save the file → Right-click → Properties → Read-only → Apply.

Step 3: Graphics Settings​

   For all .exe files in:
2. C:\Program Files\BlueStacks_nxt\

Low-End PC Warning​

• increase fps valu from only 30 (current fps value + 30)
• If your PC only gets ~30 FPS, don’t push to 120.
• Safe increments: 30 → 60 → 90 FPS.
• Pushing too high may cause lag instead of smoothness.
