Feature 18 raised access violation 0xC0000005 before frame 0 completed on RTX 5060 Ti

[Koaxz]

When attempting to process a static image using the Image tab with DLSS 5 Neural Rendering, the carrier evaluation immediately crashes on frame 0 with access violation 0xC0000005 (Feature 18 failure).

Please try open Settings in v6, And for DLSS 5 Architecture selects - Turing and higher. Check generation again.

Hi, following up on your suggestion.

I tried setting the compatibility architecture to "Blackwell and higher" because my card is an RTX 5070. However, unfortunately, it did not fix the issue. The original errors are still present: multiple instances of Failed to find NVSDK_NGX_D3D12_CreateFeature and the Access Violation 0xC0000005 crash continue.

I wanted to re-emphasize the timeline: everything was stable with Driver 616.56 (and App v5.0). The problem started right after updating both the driver (to 616.64) AND the enhancer app (to v6.0).

image-render-failure-20260905-152249-871700.json - after setting the compatibility architecture to "Blackwell and higher"

I'm not mistake says, try set the Turing and higher, even you use a Blackwell gpu. v6.0 has a problem with auto detection of correct Architecture.

Please select - Turing and higher. This problem will be fixed letter in v7.0.

616.X driver breaks reshade + renodx + dlss5. You have to revert to prev driver, I personally chose latest 610.X one, I don't want to wait for a fix when everything works fine in july driver
