Whenever I select one window the other window's framerate drops to half or even quarter. It is not the case with Linux.
This is affecting local multiplayer. Is there any way to overcome this?

I use a desktop pc. I don't know why windows would not run it while Linux can run easily.

it's because of the scheduler. Windows's scheduler prioritises the current main applicaiton more than linux does so it will run faster and both instances will desync.

If the other screen is dropping to half the FPS, that means your PC isn't powerful enough to run 2 instances. What normally should happen is it dropping 2~5 FPS at the worse case.
