No game will pre compile shaders after latest update

So originally updated to beta, while 4.5 had come out. Eventually it came out to everyone, however its the same driver (did not update). Just the APP updated.

Anyways, I noticed for reinstalling games- it would not recompile shaders at beginning. I’ve tried a few that do that. I deleted the cache from APPDATA nvidia folder. As well as cache for games. None of it worked. I tried disabling shader cache in nvidia control panel, then deleting cache again, then turning it back on. Still won’t do it.

Reinstalled drivers too

Anyone know why, or what is causing it? Why won’t games recompile their shaders? I also tried reinstalling the driver too…although I haven’t tried DDU yet.

is this a bug with the new drivers? Is it because I updated when it was in beta or something?

Any help appreciated. Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to the NVIDIA Developer forums. This community serves the developer ecosystem.

For consumer issues, please visit the GeForce forums.

That said, i is also sometimes not necessary to do a full shader recompile. also, doing a clean driver installation after switching between GRD and Beta is highly recommended.

Best regards.
