From 4b8c38e7ba45a87868b3844a9dbf9c7be798c05e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sam Lantinga Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2025 20:31:07 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Temporarily disable DwmFlush() For some reason this locks up the Windows compositor when called by Steam. I'm disabling it for now until we understand why and whether this can cause issues for other applications as well.
