Well I used the AMD cleanup utility to uninstall and remove any previously installed AMD driver files, registries, and driver store, which used Safe Mode and rebooted afterwards. Then I did a full install of AMD Adrenalin 23.4.1 software and drivers and rebooted to finish. On first reboot the AMD icon appeared in the System Tray and I reconfigured all my game profiles. I rebooted Windows 11 Pro again and now it no longer automatically loads. In order to track my game performance and tweak settings, I will have to manually run AMD Adrenalin.

Solution: I ended up creating a Windows shortcut to C:\Program Files\AMD\CNext\CNext\LauncherRSXRuntine.exe into the Startup folder located at %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs (bring up this folder from the Run line) and now it does run on Windows startup in the System Tray. It’s a workaround but at least it does work. Maybe someone with Windows 11 can check their Startup Apps list and tell me if yours also says «High» impact?

My workaround solution with screenshots is posted above. Still not sure if the cause is Adrenalin invoking the system tray app on startup or Windows 11. But just create a «shortcut» (right-click create shortcut and copy to that Startup folder, or right-click drag to that Startup folder and choose create shortcut) to the file in that Startup folder and now it loads every time.

I agree. They need to fix this automatically. They are not writing something correctly into the Windows 11 (Pro?) Registry for the startup task. I am having the same issue with my MSI Center for the motherboard. Never had an issue with Nvidia Experience software but I only used that when notified there was an update to install.

I understood what needs to be done.
Not need to write something in startup. See picture your Task Manager (Startup apps): Radeon Software Startup Task status Disabled. Need right click on task and make Enabled. And restart Windows.
Bravo AMD (sarcasm). Just turned off the task in autorun when installing new software.

Umm it says disabled and when I enable it disables itself again. Windows says it can’t find the file as stated in my first screenshot. But the file is there as evidenced with the working shortcut that I had to add to the Startup folder. Obviously Adrenalin is providing the wrong path or something to the startup tasks list via the Registry or some other way. The strange thing is that when a new driver (and Adrenalin) is installed, it works only on the first reboot. After that it never loads and becomes disabled. So the only way to make it work is by manually adding via a Windows shortcut file.

This worked for me, after installing I did not restart, but enabled the task in start up. After restart software launched, finally. Before that it did not see it in the list, as I wrote before, there was just AMD noise suppression.

Yeah I wish that worked for me. It lets me enable it then a few moments later it shows disabled again and when I select it and click on properties it says it cannot find the launcher file. I can’t remove it from the list either.

I had considered the folder permissions but they look normal. It’s odd that the Task Manager startup task acts like it can’t find the launcher file path, yet there is no problem running the launcher via a shortcut to it placed in the Startup folder which has been working that way ever since as a workaround.

I can say that there are still some issues for me too, while the software now runs on startup. The software won’t open during games and it is bad, I got warzone II open, the fan speed resets or I just can’t control any settings until a reboot has been made. Tried clean install, but same thing, not reacting.

Just noticed I have a typo in my solution. It should read this. I had spelled LauncherRSXRuntime wrong. It should read as:
«C:\Program Files\AMD\CNext\CNext\LauncherRSXRuntime.exe»

I got this issue after reinstalling the software. In task manager and startup tab I could only see AMD Noise Suppression so I disabled that, opened a program called CCleaner and used the app to scan registry and made it fix all issues it found then I opened the preformance optimizer tab (only works with paid or trial version, I have trial) and there I put AMD Software to sleep and resetted the pc. Since then the AMD Adrenaline software is minimized in my task bar and has been lunched with my Windows 11.

I just got new computer. Had lines down the center of display, then found that Windows had disabled Adrenalin software and drivers due to issues or what ever. I know very little about the workings of computers, used to plug and play. I do have CCleaner, so what would be the steps involved in trying your solution? SeismicForce had a workaround listed, but it could not find the %AppData% etc, I am not comfortable with going too deep into folders. Is AMD not aware of the issue? I did reinstall the program, and slowly things got disabled by windows.

I forgot; to see the AppData folder you have to temporarily go under Explorer view settings and show hidden items. But like I said if you do Start/Run you can paste %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs in the box and hit enter and the folder will pop up without showing hidden items first. Then just navigate to the Startup folder where you can place the shortcut to the launcher app C:\Program Files\AMD\CNext\CNext\LauncherRSXRuntine.exe

Hi,
with the latest update the same problem occured on my system and I found another solution not yet mentioned here which worked for me (of course I don’t know if it works for everyone).
I just added the path to «LauncherRSXRuntime.exe» which is «C:\Program Files\AMD\CNext\CNext» to my users environment variable «Path». Worked fine and it also should do no harm if the variable remains like this if AMD fixes the problem in the future.

I added the user environment path and in Task Manager Startup Apps I can now view LauncherRSXRuntime.exe properties, but the task remains disabled. I even tried some compatibility mode options to run as administrator and reregister for startup but no luck. I can manually enable Radeon Software Startup Task but every time I restart it is disabled again. I even reinstalled the newest AMD Adrenaline drivers but no luck. It loads on first reboot but doesn’t on subsequent reboots. So I had to put my LauncherRSXRuntime.exe shortcut icon back into the Windows Startup folder again to make it work.

These are work arounds. There is something wrong with Windows 11 and AMD for me now too… not loading at start up and I should not have to make my own start up.
No clue what is going on. But ya… like someone else said… this was toggled off and I had to toggle it on.
Download Windows Speedup Tool to fix errors and make PC run faster
Some users reported that after updating the graphics card driver, the AMD Radeon software no longer works in Windows 11. This can happen if you’re upgrading your old graphics card driver and you have a new GPU installed on your computer. In this article, we will explain why AMD Radeon software won’t open in Windows 11 and how to fix it.
If you are facing trouble accessing the AMD Radeon software on your Windows PC, here are some common solutions that might help. First of all, check if Windows Update is enabled for automatic updates. If not, enable Automatic Updates and repeat the process above after restarting your device. Still can’t open it? Continue reading for more details:
Why does the AMD Radeon software not open?
If you are running Windows 11 with AMD graphics and find that the AMD Radeon software isn’t opening, it might be due to some compatibility issues. It would be wise to check if the graphics driver is up to date as well as to look for other conflicts in the system. The following are some of the causes that may cause this issue:
- The problem is typically caused by faulty graphics card drivers, which can be resolved by rolling back your drivers.
- A similar problem may occur if the version of AMD Radeon Software does not match that of the installed driver.
- You could also experience this issue if you have recently updated Windows and do not have the latest AMD graphics driver installed.
Below are a few solutions you may want to consider:
If AMD Radeon software not opening on your Windows 11/10, you can follow the below suggestions:
- Delete the CN folder in Windows Explorer
- Update AMD Radeon drivers
- Roll back the driver to its previous version
- Install pending Windows update
- Troubleshoot in Clean Boot State
Let’s now see each of them in detail:
1] Delete the CN folder in Windows Explorer
There have been a number of reports that deleting the CN folder from File Explorer helped solved the issue. Here are the steps you can use to test this and see if it works:
- Press the Windows key + I keys to open File Explorer.
- From the left pane, click on This PC and then browse to the following path:
C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Local\AMD
Note: In the above command line, replace <username> with the actual file name.
- On the next page, right-click on the CN folder and delete it.
- Now close the File Explorer window and see if it works.
2] Update AMD Radeon drivers
This error indicates that your AMD Radeon drivers need to be updated. In order to do this, you can use the AMD Driver Autodetect application. For better results, you should run the AMD Cleanup tool and remove all AMD driver files.
3] Roll back the driver to its previous version
Windows may sometimes update some of the drivers automatically when you install a new version, and that could result in this issue. Some users have reported that they got able to resolve this issue after rolling back the display card driver to its earlier version. As a result, you can get the problem fixed by downgrading the graphics card driver rather than updating it. Here are the steps you can use to do so:
- Right-click on Start and select Device Manager from the menu list.
- Inside the Device Manager window, scroll down to the Display adapters and expand it.
- Then right-click on the adapter causing the issue, and then select Properties.
- On the Driver tab, check if the Roll Back Driver option is enabled.

Facing Radeon Software Warning on Windows 11. Fix The Version of AMD Radeon Software you have launched is not compatible Error in Windows 11.
There are several reasons why the “The Version of AMD Radeon Software you have launched is not compatible with your currently installed AMD graphics driver” error shows up on the screen. I have looked up the AMD official site, and I found interesting information regarding the error.
However, I had a completely different scenario, and it doesn’t add up in my case. I will show you how to fix the AMD Control Panel and graphics drivers in Windows 11. Do not miss a single part in the tutorial since I have shown you how to resolve the problem in Win 11.
1. Roll Back Graphics Drivers
I want to show you how to roll back graphics card drivers and stop Windows from updating it automatically from its library. The administrator account is required to roll back drivers in the Win 11 machine.
- Press the “Start” key.
- Search for “Device Manager” in the search bar and open it.
- Click on the drop-down icon beside “Display Drivers”.
- Your GPU will show up under “Display Drivers”.
Note: Gaming laptops have integrated GPU and discrete GPU.
Choose discrete GPU in the next step. Most of the integrated graphics are low-end chips, and they don’t come with advanced features in them.
- Select GPU component, then mouse-click to select “Properties”.
- A new window shows up on the screen, and select “Driver” from the main menu.
- Click on the “Roll Back Driver” option.
- Choose an option on why you are rolling back the driver, then click on the “Yes” option.
It’s a feedback form that informs the Windows Update and GPU vendor to improve parts of the upcoming drivers.
2. Reinstall GPU Drivers (Recommended)
I always uninstall GPU and Audio drivers completely from the machine and reinstall the updated drivers from the official site. My method will impact your machine performance positively and resolve the “The Version of AMD Radeon Software you have launched is not compatible with your currently installed AMD graphics driver” error.
I have separated the tutorial into four parts, so you don’t confuse yourself.
#1 Preparation
Download GPU drivers from the laptop manufacturer site.
You should head to the motherboard manufacturer website and download the GPU drivers from the official site.
Download Display Driver Uninstaller, otherwise known as DDU in the community. DDU is an open-source program that I have been using for almost three years.
#2 Boot into Windows Safe Mode
Windows Safe Mode loads Microsoft drivers only, and it is an integral part of the operating system. I solved several OS-related problems in Safe Mode, and it won’t harm your computer.
- Restart Windows PC, while holding the Shift key.
- Your PC will start, and “Recovery Options” will show up on the screen.
- Choose “Troubleshoot” and press the “Enter” key.
- Choose “Advanced options” and press the “Enter” key.
- Choose “Startup Settings” and press the “Enter” key.
- Click on “Restart” or, and press the “Enter” key.
- Press the 4 key to boot into Safe Mode.
If the PC fails to boot into Safe Mode, then the software is officially corrupted. Try System Restore to bring back the system to an earlier point.
#3 Uninstall GPU Drivers
Let me show you a way to uninstall GPU drivers, and this method will not show any mercy to the remnants. DDU wipes out the GPU drivers and folders from the system, which is a viable solution among power users.
- Extract the DDU folder and extract the 7ZIP file as well.
- Run the program as administrator, then click on “OK” to proceed further.
- Click on “Close” and don’t change the default settings.
- Click to “Select Device Type” and select “GPU”.
- Choose “AMD” below.
- Click on “Clean and restart” and it is recommended by the DDU.
Display Driver Uninstaller will remove the GPU drivers and their supported components. Wait for five minutes for the entire uninstall process to finish, and it will land your machine into Windows 11 Lock Screen.
#4 Install AMD GPU Drivers
It’s time to install the compatible AMD drivers in the Windows 11 machine. You shouldn’t download the package from the AMD official site and go to the manufacturer site instead. The manufacturer has tested the GPU drivers in the motherboard or laptop to ensure maximum compatibility. Do not skip a beat and read the entire article because I’ve shown you how to stop Windows from updating the drivers automatically.
- Run the AMD GPU setup file as administrator
- Let the executable file detect the AMD hardware.
- Click on “Additional options” to select “Factory reset”, then click on “Install”.
- AMD setup file begins installing the drivers in the system.
- Click on “Restart now”, or you can take two minutes to save the work running in the background.
- The driver setup wizard shows up after the PC restart.
- Click on “Restart” to complete the installation.
- You can note down the working driver’s version.
New AMD GPU drivers are installed on the PC. You won’t face the problem again until or unless, there are hardware-level issues. Make sure to try the below solutions and prevent Windows Update from updating the GPU drivers.
How to Stop Windows Update from updating AMD GPU drivers?
Save the web page in the bookmarks, if you ever want to revert the changes.
- Press the Start button.
- Copy & paste the following command and press the Enter key to open it.
systempropertiesadvanced.exe
- A window shows up on the screen and click on “Hardware” to continue.
- Click on “Device Installation Settings” to continue.
- A new window appears and select “No (your device might not work as expected)”, then click on “Save changes”.
- Click on “OK” to confirm the changes.
You should consider it a temporary fix and have to wait for Microsoft to fix the problem. They should allow the users to opt-out from auto-updates for individual components. Nonetheless, your GPU will work smoothly as long as you are installing the drivers from the motherboard manufacturer site or laptop manufacturer site.
Note: Many Windows 11 PCs are running on Windows 10 drivers. I had several computers which are no longer supported by the manufacturer, so there are no software updates available on the official site. You can purchase discrete GPU from Nvidia GT-series or pick up used graphics cards from the eBay or local market. I owned three discrete graphics cards, and all of them were purchased from the used online market. The worst-case scenario would be going back to Windows 10, which is not a deal-breaker in my opinion.
Conclusion
You should handle the desktop or laptop with care and Windows 11 drivers are unstable, which caused the “The Version of AMD Radeon Software you have launched is not compatible with your currently installed AMD graphics driver” error. I suggest the readers switch back to Win 10 and wait for a year or so for Win 11 to have a stable operating system and drivers. Let us know what do you think about our AMD GPU drivers solution in the comment section below.
