Everything was working fine until a windows update a few weeks ago. after that, my GPU (AMD Radeon 6700 XT. driver version is Adrenalin 25.9.1) stopped folding. a WU will pop up, and the bar will fill up red and drain over and over again until it fails, and no matter what I do nothing helps. i tried reinstalling my AMD drivers, and it fixed it at first, but something else must've happened because the issue started all over again. now when i try reinstalling the drivers, it doesn't do anything. i've un/reinstalled F@H, too. once WU's keep failing, if i close F@H it won't open again; i'll have to reinstall it to get it to.
I used to be very computer literate, but I'm not anymore, so if you have any suggestions please give me advice as if i were a child lol. i did try using GPT to troubleshoot, which is how i knew to mess with the drivers, but i don't trust its more invasive suggestions--i'd rather a human give me advice just in case i mess something up. i have my late brother's PC, and i'd be devastated if i ruined it. it's one of the only things i have of his that means anything to me.
thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Re: WU's keep failing after windows/AMD driver update
Windows Updates probably replaced the drivers by its own, without the required components to run FAH. Reinstall drivers with one downloaded from AMD website.
Also, posting logs from the client would help.

Re: WU's keep failing after windows/AMD driver update
When windows updates the GPU drivers, go to Device manager, find Display Adapter, right click on your display adapter, click on properties, the select Drivers tab, click Roll back driver. Once it does its business, download the driver from AMD website and install it
