Hi

Welcome to the Microsoft community.

The hardware acceleration option in win11 is hidden for some reason. There are certain methods you can use to try to see if you can fix it.

1. Use the registry to create a new value and try to set it.

Search Regedit in the search box and open the registry window.

Locate Computer/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/GraphicsDrivers

In the right margin, create a new DWORD, Name the new DWORD "HwSchMode", double-click HwSchMode, set the value to 2, and then click OK, restart the computer to see if the hardware acceleration option appears (Settings > System > Display > Graphics Settings)

（Disclaimer: Generally, modifying registry subkeys or work group is intended for advanced users, administrators, and IT Professionals. It can help fix some problems, however, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For further protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

2. locate Settings > System > Display > Graphics Settings > and click on "Change Default Graphics Settings." Then, toggle off the Then, toggle off the switch under "Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling" and select "Yes" from the User Access Control prompt.
