Slow alt tabbing in dx 81

So if I have dxlevel 81 in my launch options it takes like 5-10 sec to tab in to the game and it will eventually crash. If I use dx 95 alt tabbing is instant, but I assume this would give me worse performance. Does anyone know a way to have dx 81 without having this issue or do you know if I would get better performance if I ran dx 81 in windowed compared to dx 95 fullscreen? Cause I won't have the alt tabbing problem in windowed (I assume windowed dx 81 gives worse performance than dx 81 fullscreen).

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

edit: I have disabled the focus support thingy for notifications in windows

you shouldn't keep the -dxlevel in launch options
when you change it, launch the game then immadiately close it and remove dxlevel from launch options

dxlevel 8 is very poorly optimized for most modern pcs and is known to have alt tabbing issues
the solution to your problem is dxlevel 9
unfortunate because i like dx8's aesthetic

no it's not I get instant alt tabs with dx8, just don't leave it in your launch options and you will be good.
