MTA FPS drops

[This_Name_Is_Taken]

A few days ago my MTA experienced severe FPS drops. I tried running it as an admin, I tried deleting the .asi files, I tried disabling the antivirus, I tried adding them as an exception to the firewall, I tried lowering the graphics, I tried defragmenting the hard drive, I tried deleting the contents of the folder which stores the server datas and I tried reinstalling it. None worked. If I run it on windowed mode the cursor doesn't lag anymore in the menu, but every server lags.
Here are the important parts of my specifications:

• Windows 7 64 bit
• Intel i5 6400 2.70 GHz
• Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti

This all started a few days ago.

Hi there. Faced the same problem, for me the problem was the 'Avast' antivirus which ate all my CPU in a unknown reason, so I un-installed it, now everything works fine, if you're using the same software as I did, you should do the same and switch to something else.

When you're in fullscreen, is it only the MTA menu that lags, or is it both the menu and every server?
