Folding Forum

Posted: **Fri Dec 18, 2020 9:37 pm**

I was successfully folding on both CPU and GPU for a bit under Windows 10 Home. I went ahead and upgraded my version to a Pro release of Windows 10 and after the upgrade, the GPU slot is showing as disabled. It seems that the GPU states that it is disabled due to not being able to find OpenCL support. I went ahead and did a fresh install of the latest AMD Radeon drivers and rebooted, without success. I also have reinstalled the client and deleted client data as well, without success.

Any ideas of how I can begin folding again on the GPU?

Sorry all, actually just figured this out.

Tried to follow this, and was not successful (the opencl.dll was not within System32): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOxuimkt660

After a reboot, I went to device manager and noticed that the driver for my display adapter was the Microsoft Basic driver. I went ahead and chose to update it and pointed device manager towards the extracted files that AMD creates during the Radeon video card driver installation. After a reboot, everything is back to normal. It looked like an optional update was also available through Windows update prior to me doing this, and that would have likely solved it as well, albeit a potentially older driver release.

Hope this helps someone!

I saw that gpedit.msc provides a way to prevent driver updates from windows updates

Win10 Home does not come with gpedit, but there is a youtube video (one of those horribly annoying ones with no talking and awful music) that shows u how to install gpedit. The top comment has convenient notes so one can copy paste, but i'll reproduce here:
search terms - Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientExtensions-Package.mum and
Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientTools-Package.mum

What was typed:
DISM /Online /Add-Package:C:\Windows\Servicing\Packages\

then append the full filenames from the search returns to the above and now u have Home with gpedit
