If Radeon Software is not installed with the running Radeon driver, you may get a similar error message.

Workaround.

Open regedit and this path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AMD\CN

Edit "DriverVersion" string, just make it blank, erase the value. Press OK. Reboot PC.

Error should go away but as negative effect: Alt + R and Alt + Z overlay hotkeys might not work but you can open Radeon Software via right mouse click context menu.

P.S. If you install stable Radeon Software which comes with previous drivers and update driver to the latest version (without latest Radeon Software if something broken there) via Windows Device Manager (.inf file), you will get the same error and it's can be fixed the same "regedit way" too.

I found a solution for the AMD Radeon Software & Drivers Bug "Radeon Software and Drivers versions do not match. Please try again after updating to the latest version(s)." and  "Radeon Settings and Driver versions do not match. Please try again after updating to the latest version(s)." To solve the bug, please follow the steps:

1. Open the Device Manager
2. Search your graphic card (Display Adapters > Your Graphic Card)
3. Right click it and open the Properties
4. Go to Driver and click Update Driver
5. Browse now your computer for drivers
6. Pick the list of avaible drivers on your computer
7. Select the latest installed AMD Radeon Driver and click on next

Now, the AMD will be install and after that, restart your pc and the AMD Driver will work.

You're not alone, this has been happening for a long time and yet AMD did nothing to correct this. I am facing this issue right now.
