Just go to AMD's driver website, select your GPU, select your operating system, download the drivers mentioned in the post, and install them. If you have your Radeon software set to automatically download and install all new driver updates, disable that setting, or at least tell it to only download recommended drivers, not optional ones.

That sucks. Hope it gets fixed!

Thanks for letting me know!

I regret investing in an AMD card, it was the worst part decision I've ever made for my computer. While the technology itself is decent, they are terrible at programming their drivers. Full of bugs, crashes, and hangs, I will not be buying an AMD card ever again. :steamsalty:

Thanks for the heads up! I know the latest driver is WIP, its a beta driver as given on the AMD website, a teaser for the performance improvements expected when the driver moves to stable recommended branch. That timing is expected to coincide with release of Windows 11 22H2, or sometime before that.

This is no reason to complain about AMD drivers being ♥♥♥♥♥♥, I am quite satisfied with my 6700XT, plus this is no place to have a flamewar about GPUs

I saw this too late :( I instlaled it yesterday thank you for the warning though, but I will wait for a fix so no SE for me for a while U-U.
