For all things AMD; come talk about Ryzen, Radeon, Threadripper, EPYC, rumors, reviews, news and more.

A week ago, brikulex posted a solution on amd forums and I'm genuinely dumbfounded that this works:

I don't think that AMD is actually working on fixing this.

However I believe I have found something (at least something that works for me).

As always, I am not responsible for what you do, and if following my guide makes your computer explode, it's not my fault.

I am asking some of you who are affected by this bug and ever had Epic Games Launcher installed to try this:

  1. Exit Epic Games Launcher if you have it open (right click it in the notification tray and click Exit)

  2. Open the folder %localappdata%\EpicGamesLauncher\Saved

  3. Rename the Logs folder to something like LogsBackup

  4. Try to open Radeon Software and hope it works

Please respond if it fixed your issue or not, or if you don't even have the EpicGamesLauncher folder.

If I find out it doesn't actually work and it was just a coincidence, I will edit this post to correct it.

Good Luck!

I just installed 23.11.1 and last night it was again crashing windows explorer. I mean, drives and folders are taking longer to load with or without the stupid green search bar for two things on a drive or folder. "Working on it." I know it's Radeon, because literally every time since like 15 something, they've all been unstable. It, just happened again while I was wanting find the folder I kept the Driver Version Downloaded to. I said, "Never mind, life's too short."
