Substance Painter (2023 Steam Edition) does not launch when I try to launch it.

App Version: 9.0.0

Platform: Steam

OS Version: Windows 11

Problem occurs when I attempt to launch the software.

Program should run with my current computer hardware. Program just doesn't start.

 

I recently purchased the 2023 Steam Edition of Substance Painter and it will not launch when I try to launch it. No error messages appear or anything. It just says it's launching and then stops. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it multiple times and even restarting my computer between installs as well as a few other things. Still nothing I've tried has worked. I would love to start texturing my 3D models but I can't do that until I figure out how to fix this issue.

 

Anybody know what the issue is?

Thanks @Shadeux_7183,

 

We have known issues with AMD GPU drivers. Could you try to rollback the driver for a previous version?

 

Let me know,
