Hello there @PleaseHelp and welcome to the NVIDIA developer forums.
I think whichever support you talked to was not clear enough on which forum you should check out.
This community serves the developer ecosystem. So if you are one of the developers of Atlas Fallen for example and you encounter this issue, you might be in the right place.
For consumer issues, you should visit the GeForce forums.

But if I would add my opinion to this, then I would guess that you need to update Overwulf or even better uninstall it completely since it obviously intervenes with normal Vulkan operation.
Thanks!
thats what i though. i tried telling him that but he insisted. i also fixed it, and in case it helps it was overwolf conflicting with vulkan, and uninstalling vulkan allowed the game to launch and run
