AMD Adrenalin stops opening from taskbar

After a fair bit of PC usage, Adrenalin eventually stops opening from the taskbar when I double click the icon. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to what causes this. The current fix for me is to restart the computer or open Task Manager and end the Host Application process. I considered that there may be some minor driver timeout causing it, since it seems to start after some computer usage, but I don't have any issues running games.

 

Things I've tried to resolve the issue (from Google searching)

  • Removing Epic Games Launcher
  • Deleting the CN folder in AMD App Data
  • Renaming the Logs folder in EpicGamesLauncher
  • Used DDU to uninstall drivers and installed fresh updated drivers

I have the same problem,

but i also cant open it otherwise. The only way to open Adrenalin at that point is to end the running process and wait for it to reopen.

 

Things I've tried to resolve the issue that did not work:

Uninstalled all AMD software with its AMD Cleanup Utility and reinstalled Adrenalin to factory settings.

Previously i rolled back the driver but that did also do nothing.

ended all other programms to check for a conflict.

My Windows is up to date.

I ran sfc and DISM through cmd.

Appreciate the reply, at least I know it's not me. Didn't mention I also ran sfc and DISM and no luck.

Ye lets hope for the best, that it either gets fixed asap or someone knows a workaround. If nothing i think ill try it with rolling back to a version 3-4 month old in a couple of days, maybe that will do it. I only rolled back 2-3 versions last time.
