I had updated my Geforce Game Ready driver on April 16 to version 445.87 and my client recognized my GPU that day. I had issues getting WU assignments with it so I had tried reinstalling it in hopes I could get one. However with the new version of F@H that includes the COVID option, the client won't even recognize I have a GPU and just does CPU folding. I tried adding slots but that didn't fix it. I then tried reinstalling the old driver for NVIDIA and reinstalled F@H again to see if that was the issue, but it still won't recognize my GPU.
I have a Geforce RTX 2060.
Could anyone help?

Re: Client won't recognize my GPU
Welcome to the F@H Forum dylanraydubuisson,
I would suggest that you:
Manually download the GPUs.txt file from here: https://apps.foldingathome.org/GPUs.txt (right-click save as GPUs.txt)
Exit the client
Copy the GPUs.txt file from the Downloads folder to %AppData%\FAHClient
Reboot your system
Start up the client and ensure that you can see your GPU in the log file
Add a GPU slot from FAHControl -> Configure -> Slots tab -> Add -> GPU -> OK -> Save
Let us know if that works or not

Re: Client won't recognize my GPU
tried that solution with no luck on windows 10. I also tried to configure the config.xmll file. I even saved a restarted, and everytime it would default to the initial config on the log in control.
