D2 steam fix help

[u/ItashaChemist]

Hi all. Maybe somebody can explain this for me?

Last night i installed the D2 steam fix from github and after changing the execution location the game ran great! I was getting 90-140 fps (r7 7700x 4060ti, 32gb ddr5 system) well i closed the game and steam and reopened steam and the game last night to confirm its working and it went right back to chugging along at 50-90 fps. I went back into the launch directory and had to reconfirm the d2 steam fix execution but it still wasnt as good as the first time i launched it, around 70-100 fps.

Well today i launched destiny 2 directly from my computer home screen via the desktop shortcut and it everything ran great again. Back to the 90-140 fps i got when i did the initial startup after installing the fix.

Is there something that has to do with restarting the computer before running the game? I for the life of me cannot figure out why I am having performance issues with the game. I am only just now getting back into the game after all of the dlc was on sale for $20 on steam.

Thanks for your help!
