Photoshop sniffer problem (YES, AGAIN)

Ok, sorry for starting yet another thread about this unpleasant app but I haven't found exactly the same issue on the forum. Here is the problem: photoshop can't recognize NVIDIA MX150 card AFTER windows update, and/or driver update, and/or photoshop itself update. These three things happened simultaneosly on my system so I cannot root cause the issue. But, I am assuring you it worked fine on the same system before.

Curiously enough, sniffer runs perfectly in a console on its own - it only fails when it's ran by photoshop. I am also attaching sniffer-out.txt generated by photoshop, so it apparently works BUT photoshop manages to cache results somewhere else because when it doesn't recognize GPU it shows the message with a quite an old timestamp. I write "WHEN" because there is yet another interesting twist - it runs smoothly if I am running procmon capture when I start photoshop. Apparently by inserting hooks procmon changes photshop behavior so it lives along with the card, windows, driver, sniffer and GPU. SO I currently have to use this weird workaround but I would be happy to return to the point when I didn't have to hold procmon on a leash.

IS THERE A WAY TO FIX THIS?

many thanks!
