    Hello, I have the same issue. It started happening after some Windows update I think. I tried the AMD solution, and reinstalling drivers. Everytime it fixes itself and is ok for a few days and suddenly when I turn on my pc in the morning, the driver software can't launch. Not in the taskbar, not in the right click menu. It's really frustrating!

    Dear Microsoft, this issue if nagging users for years, the whole 6 years i used Win10.

    Sorry guys do you ever learn anything?

    Now the holy grale Win11 is there open source, linux, android, Welcome to the future.

    But is it really impossible to program a simple dialog "Windows Driver Update, AMD GPU Driver" Do you want to install? Yes/No checkbox never nag me again or always?

    My daily lesson after i started my PC, mhmm Display looks too bright, check for AMD Driver, yay gone again. I know the process blind and sleeping, but why has this to be?

    If i want to play a round after work, i dont have much time to spend, lemme say around 1-2hrs and every time this happens Microsoft is stealing my lifetime 15mins each stupid update.

    I mean if MS would be cool, they would install the whole AMD driver Package. Not just the incompatible Driver.

    Dear MS i dont go into your House 2 times a weak and take your Kitchen stuff into your bathroom, where you cant use it if youre hungry.

    STOP THAT NOW AND FOREVER, PLEASE

    Sincerely yours

    Andreas Voigt

    Actually its true that Windows Update causes this AMD driver and Software errors!!

    I have the same issue now for about 3 weeks. I had to REINSTALL AMD driver every 2-3 days. I notice that everytime I reinstall AMD driver, after 2-3 days Windows Updates automatically installed graphic driver called "Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. - Display - 27.20.21034.37 ". And AMD software couldnt be launched anymore!

    Solution is that you just roll back driver to previos version and AMD Software will work again even without restarting computer!

    For now I disabled Windows updates and I will check later if Windows Updates want to install this bad driver again.

    Having the exact same issue as Kristiyan A, on a brand new 6700 XT.

    It's ironic because prior to this recent purchase I haven't had an AMD card for nearly 15 years, and the one I had back then also forced me to reinstall the driver every few days (though for different reasons). AMD never changes.

    Rolling back the driver worked for me, for now at least.

    To roll back, type "device manager" (without the quotes) in the windows 10 taskbar search.

    If you don't have the search bar in the task bar in windows 10, the simply right mouse click on the task bar and a menu pops up, near the top of the menu you'll see search, click it and then click "show search bar". It will then appear bottom left in the task bar.

    Once device manager is open, look for "display adapter".

    Double click "display adapter".

    Then double click the name of your graphic card.

    In the new pop up select the driver tab.

    Then select "roll back driver".

    This worked for my AMD 6800xt and the Radeon software appeared once again.
