Low FPS When Tabbed Into Game

Hey I was wondering if there was any way I could optimize Snapcam to not limit FPS when tabbed away from it? When im focused on that app or other desktop things, it runs smooth, perfect. The second I tab into a game it drops to like 20fps as it gets mildly choppy. Obviously becomes INCREDIBLY choppy once I turn on retouching when no lens is on, but even that runs SMOOTH when I'm tabbed out. My game does not suffer any fps loss except when i tab OUT of it as it has a "optimize in background" feature so as to limit power drain. My gpu and cpu are not hitting 100% when running in game, so I'm not sure if its still a work in progress, or I need something better than an i7-12700k/rtx 3070 ti? 

Any help would be appreciated! Running on Windows 11

    It could be a windows 11 thing, they added some additional app priority stuff. I would check for anything like Game DVR running, Power saving settings, etc and see if any of that can help
