Hello,
I love the Pin feature, sadly we can’t resize small enough to be usable for me.
Would be great to allow to resize smaller.

Other thing, previous version when switching from game to dashboard, if we had desktop open it was re-oppened automatically which was GREAT.
Now it doesn’t it keeps only the pinned one.

Why is pi_server.exe consuming so much CPU and memory when the headset is idle? I have a 9800x3D with 32GB Ram and between 12-23% is used by pi_server.exe process.

Two recommendations offered by other users

Uninstall Pimax play (make sure to delete Pimax system folders afterwards) and install it again.

Check to see if Pimax home is switched on in Pimax Play, try trying off.

If that fails reach out to support

That’s a bizarre solution. The more steps there are, the greater likelihood of something going wrong.
That said, 23% idle is a TREMENDOUS amount of overhead for a process, and should be corrected immediately.

The first suggestion was that the installation had become corrupted causing excessive system resource allocation

The second suggestion comes from users who mentioned that Pimax home environment is “live” (requiring resources) even when the headset is off.
