Radeon software updates above 17.11.2 are causing my games to 'freeze' upon launch.

This is a weird occurrence that, as far as I know, hasn't happened with anyone else.

When updating Radeon software through the AMD Radeon settings application, any update that's above 17.11.2 causes my games to freeze on upon launch. After a little bit of messing around with the game's, I figured out that they were just not updating the frames/display and could be updated by simply pressing the windows key then clicking back on the game, after doing this the new frame/updated frame is displayed but then freezes again.

I am certain that it's the updates that are causing this since when I restore my system to a point which has version 17.11.2 or below installed, this problem doesn't persist, I have done several updates with newer and different software versions and they all produce the same problem.

CPU: Intel Core i5-2400T @ 2.3GHz

GPU: Radeon RX 550 4GB GDDRD5 Memory

OS: Windows 10 Home 64Bit

Games that froze: ARK: Survival Evolved

                             No Man's Sky

                             Astroneer

                             Fishing Planet

                             Besiege

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
