AMD Radeon settings not launching

BudgiePanic · June 27, 2019

Hello forum,

Whenever I try to launch the AMD Radeon settings program on my computer, the program immediately crashes. This means I'm unable to access Graphics settings and features like ReLive.

The last time I know for certain that the program was working was back in late April. My PC has an RX580. The card itself works fine, and can still play games and stuff. It's just the program that doesn't work.

I've tried the following fixes (none have worked):

-Uninstall + reinstall AMD Radeon settings (using the uninstall tool, which does still work)

-Go back to earlier version of the program

The video below shows the program crashing in action. It will appear very briefly in task manager before disappearing:

Also of note:

now when I launch my GPU overclocking software, I get this error message

Any help with this would be appreciated

Try using DDU to uninstall the drivers then get the latest driver from Amd's website.

Ok, I did that. Problem still not solved. Still has the exact same behavior as before. Launch the program, it briefly shows up in task manager then disappears.

Do you have another windows install on a drive that you could try? If not it might be worth reinstalling windows.
