How to fix lag spikes and micro-freezes in Battlefield 1 on Windows 10

A quick fix for a frustrating problem.

Many Battlefield 1 players on PC have reported that their game suffers from what they're calling lag spikes and micro-freezes in both singleplayer and multiplayer. You're running along fine one minute, and then, for about two or three seconds, everything freezes up before returning to normal.

The likely problem is that there's a service running in the background that doesn't agree with Battlefield 1. It causes your disk usage to spike, resulting in the micro-freeze. Here's how to determine if this is indeed the problem and how to fix the problem once and for all on Windows 10.

How to determine the problem

Some people might be confusing high network latency with this disk usage problem. A good clue is if it persists while you play the campaign.

Another way to determine if this problem is separate from your internet is by using the built-in network graph during online play. Here's how to enable it.

1. Hit Esc on your keyboard while you're in a multiplayer game.
2. Click Options.

3. Click Gameplay.
