CC 2020 and newer apps slow / lagging performance after GPU driver crash event

I recently had what appears to be a GPU (driver?) crash, resulting in the GPU being "disconnected". This occurred while I was using Photoshop 2020 (v21.x.x)
Ever since, Photoshop 2020, AND OTHER CC 2020 ADOBE APPS have been negatively affected. Also affects CC 2021 apps. CC 2018 does NOT seem to be affected.
When the crash occurred, Photoshop 2020 was the only Adobe app running, Creative Cloud app was not running at the time.
Now, when I open Photoshop 2020, there is a long delay when I open an image file, or create a new image. The Adobe spinning wheels pointer starts, then freezes along with the rest of the app for about 10-15 seconds. SAME behavior with Illustrator 2020. (Those are the two 2020 apps I use). Then the image loads. And now it is generally slow. For example, if I select an area of an image, then free transform, there is at least a 1 second delay before the action happens. Previously, everything was normal, fast, responsive.
I uninstalled then reinstalled Photoshop 2020, and did not fix.
Then I installed Photoshop 2021. Same negative behavior.
I primarily use After Effects 2018, and it is acting normal. Same with Photoshop 2018 and Illustrator 2018 - they all behave normally. All other apps on my system seem fine.
I use Windows 10 x64, updated. High-end workstation. GeForce GTX 1080 Ti.
Event Viewer showed four events at the time of the crash:
First was:
Faulting application name: NVDisplay.Container.exe, version: 1.19.2722.8896, time stamp: 0x5d75d64b
Faulting module name: AppXDeploymentClient.dll, version: 10.0.19041.662, time stamp: 0xda637437

Then:
The NVIDIA LocalSystem Container service terminated with the following error:
A generic command executable returned a result that indicates failure.

Then:

Then:

Anyone experienced this? Suggestions?
Thanks.
