Verify the LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Game Files

Ensure your game files are complete and up to date. Ensure that The Skywalker Saga is not running in the background, and open up your Steam library. Right-click The Skywalker Saga and select Properties.

On this window, in the Local Files tab, select Verify integrity of game files. This will take a minute to redownload and replace any missing or corrupted game files.

Local FIles > Verify integrity of game files

Adjust Game Compatibility Properties

Open up your File Explorer and navigate to the drive on which you saved the game on Program Files > Steam > steamapps > common > LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga here right-click the StarWars.exe application and go to its Properties.

Make sure that you’re in the Compatibility tab and select Disable Fullscreen Optimizations and apply your changes.

Windows Display Settings

Right-click your desktop and select Display Settings.

Ensure the scaling is set to 100% and you use a standard native resolution. In your in-game graphics settings, set the window mode to Fullscreen.

Windows Settings > System > Display > Scale & Layout

Close Resouce Intensive Background Apps

If the issue persists, open up your Task Manager by searching for it in your start menu search. In the Processes tab, make sure to end the programs from running in the background which could show an overlay while in-game. You should, in addition, end CPU-intensive processes, such as Shadowplay and Adobe Applications, but make sure to only end the processes from running that you know won’t break your operating system.

Update Graphics Driver

Lastly, ensure your graphics driver is up to date. I suggest using the GeForce Experience application for an NVIDIA GPU, but you can also use the AMD driver suite. This tweak can make the most significant difference depending on how frequently you update your GPU. In the Drivers tab, click on Download, and the application will automatically download and install the latest driver.

Windows Operating System Update

Search for Update to open your Check for updates system settings window. Click on Check for updates, and restart your PC after downloading the latest OS update.

Enable NVIDIA Image Scaling

If the problem is related to your system performance, you might need to lower your in-game graphics settings. If you’re using an NVIDIA graphics card, I suggest enabling NVIDIA Image Scaling, which will greatly increase your performance. To do so, you should use the GeForce Experience application. In the Drivers tab, ensure that the most recent GPU driver is installed.

Navigate to your GeForce settings. Scroll down and enable the Image Scaling option. This will boost your overall frame rates when playing a game on your PC.
