Issues with launching the game
So i just redownloaded no mans sky after a while, Im assuming it downloaded the newest updates too. But every time i try to open it, a white screen appears, stays there for about 10 seconds, and the game closes again, any advice?

Delete everything in "C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA\NGX\models".

What will that do?

It should stop the white screen and CTD. Obsolete models will be regenerated by DLSS next time you start.

And it wont mess up anything on my computer?

No worries, DLSS just recreates the models the next time it's used. Just like clearing out an old shader cache.

So, i go in the folder, select everything, then just delete and I should be good?

If you have the NVIDIA directory and files, it couldn't hurt to try. Otherwise, go to "Display & Graphics" and "Reset to Default".

No Man's Sky will not even open for me when I press play it just flashes a white window for barely second and then just closes and nothing happens
