[Bug]: Virtual Driver Control 25.7.23 Stopped Working Properly After NVIDIA Driver Update

[dtsvn-manhvv]

Hi, Virtual Driver Control 25.7.23 suddenly stopped working properly for me yesterday. It had been working normally before that, and I suspect the issue may have started after I updated my NVIDIA GPU driver.

The virtual display is still created and detected by Windows, but it is not functioning properly and cannot be used as before.

Could the latest NVIDIA driver update have caused a compatibility issue with VDC/VDD 25.7.23? Is there a recommended NVIDIA driver version, workaround, or fix for this issue?

Same here, reverting nvidia to 610.88 fixes it

As I don't see the driver version mentioned, I have the same issue since updating to Driver 616.56
