The game crashes when opening in fullscreen mode

I’m not sure if this is a bug that has already been reported or invalid, but I just launched 26.3 a few moments ago and when I pressed F11 the game crashed. On the crash notes it states it could be by a recording software which I use Nvidia app however this was never an issue in the snapshots or the first release candidate. This affects the last 2 release candidates along with the version listed. Why this would cause an issue with a recording software is beyond me and was introduced in the second release candidate, so if it could be fixed I would like to see such, if not then I will have to wait and see. Also, if this is known let me know in the comment section and if possible I will close this report or request it closed.

To reproduce one must have the nvidia app on their computer, turn on instant replay, open the game in either windowed mode and then change it to fullscreen, the game stops a split second after the game is made into fullscreen with the F11 keybind.

Update: it is the screen recording software from Nvidia and not some outdated driver.

there is no crash report that is made when this happens as the window just stops functioning and I cannot find the latest so called “crash report” the launcher gives me
the clip there was me changing it from windowed to fullscreen and then it crashing
in the screenshot my gpu and cpu are shown, being gpu RTX 4060 and cpu being Ryzen 7 7700X as for ram I have 16 GB on a Windows 11 OS

I’m not sure why it looks that way in the recording but shortly after that screen looks like that the game stops functioning and I cannot get a decent clip of what happens after.

+1 happens for me too, im on amd radeon rx 6650 xt, it only happens with exclusive fullscreen mode on, and when closing the game like that too.

Update 2: This crash does not happen in 26.4 snapshot 1 so something changed between 26.3 and the latest snapshot
