In Windows 11 PredatorSense's factory default -0.125v undervolting on doesnt work, any fix for this?

So, I have updated my Helios 300 2019 Model(PH315-52) to Windows 11. Upon installing the predator sense, normally in Windows 10 the default undervolting changes to -0.125v but in this case it has risen up to 0.389v. I think PredatorSense needs update. Is there any work around for now?

    No, Fix for Now

    I'm also facing the same issue on my PH315-52 and even i tried ThrotlleStop, Since i have latest bios update the Throttle Stop Won't work anymore with my System unless i downgrade my bios that i don't want to do.

    currently, i reduced the maximum cpu to 99% in windows power plan settings but that turn off's turbo boost. in that case there's no option just wait until Acer Releases New Update to Predator Sense

    Yeah, they need to release new updates for Predator Sense. For now I have revert back to Windows 10(clean installation). To be honest Predator Sense version 3136 has problems in Windows 10 as well. For ex it sometimes does the factory undervolting but in other times it doesn't. So far the I am using the old 3116 version which has no such problems.

    Acer Seems to be already updated drivers for Helios 300 PH315-54, I hope other models like PH315-53, PH315-52, PH315-51 Follow up very soon

    i heard someone had this problem on a helios 500. I think he said VBS was the problem. Once he disabled it, undervolt was back to -0.125

    VBS was not the issue as it was already disabled. So it has to be a issue with PredatorSense's XTU.

    The Current Workaround for Undervolt Issue is Disabling Memory Integrity in Windows Defender and If you have Enabled Virtual Machine Platform Components in Optional Feature for WSL, You need to Disable that

    Acer doesn't seem to care on upgrading driver's for PH315-53, PH315-52, PH315-51. It's been over 3 months since launch of Windows 11 but we still doesn't have the driver's for it.

    They did pushed Windows 11 Drivers for there latest Helios 300 PH315-54 but older models were in vein, 

    What they care is selling more devices instead of supporting older models, Acer Helios 300 PH315-52 would be last device that I was buying from Acer.

    Other OEM's like Lenovo, Already pushed Win11 Drivers for many of it's older devices in Helios 300s caliber.

    Acer has really nothing to do with Microsoft's roll out of Windows 11. They send it out to systems on their own schedule. You can always manually upgrade it yourself, but since almost everyone complains about gaming performance in W11 I'd be awfully tempted for them to clean it up before doing it myself.

    it seems like nitrosense is the answer, but the triton300 is not supported!

    No, NitroSense is for Nitro machines, PredatorSense is for Predator machines. This thread is for a Predator Helios 300, so NitroSense wouldn't work on it.

    it's been 6 months since the release of Windows 11 and still we don't have fix for this issue yet, waiting continues forever. Hope Acer would address these issues pretty soon.

    If anyone 
    has Acer Helios 300 PH315-52 with Acer Support Still Active, Please create a ticket regarding this issue as many as possible

    Thanks

    Even I worked with one of the Windows Lead who's responsible for Virtual Platform and Windows Security to Find what causing this issue and came to conclusion that it is do with Virtual Machine Platform and Hypervisor Port that Doesn't Allow Intel XTU that Baked into Predator Sense Make Changes to CPU Undervolt Value,

    Acer should upgrade Predator Sense with Latest Intel XTU Services that Can Make Changes to CPU Undervolt, But they don't. I have complained this issue to many Acer Support services as possible and still no response regarding that.

    On my case, this issue totally ruins the experience and I don't have a option to go back to Windows 10 as well since I really need to use WSLg every now and then
