Is there a true Construct 3 .exe? (Performance Issues)

I want to jump ship from C2 to C3 but the only thing holding me back is the performance issues from having the application be browser-based.

Interacting with the Layout has this weird, sluggish performance latency. I doubt its my machine since its a VR-capable rig.

I know there's a way you can pop C3 out of your browser but its effectively still a browser window and the problems persist.

Is this truly just how C3 is, and there's no changing that? Browser integration is a fantastic feature and I do applaud it, but the drawbacks of this system far outweigh the benefits if there truly isn't a standard .exe application. I mean there's a ton of reasons why we don't run all of our apps through our browsers.

I haven't had any problems running it in the browser on various devices, including my phone and a 10 year old potato. Do you use any extensions/plugins?

You can try the desktop exe version... which is running in a browser wrapper. But at least it (should be) a clean browser wrapper. construct.net/en/forum/construct-3/general-discussion-7/construct-nw-js-desktop-app-131317

Only an anti-adware/malware & a darkmode extension (which I disabled)(Also; Chrome).

This solution seems to work great though! Exactly what I was looking for. Do you know if this method prompts for version updates or will I have to manually check & do that?
