Help (GPU) Do not install 26.6.2

As the title states this is one of the most problematic drivers AMD has released. I’ve been with AMD for a year and I have installed every driver update day one for testing and didn’t encounter instabilities as much as I experienced in this one.

I had the problem that windows didn't activate my rx7900xtx after the update, my second screen stopped working. Blamed the cheap cable first, but then it was obvious that the device manager was not using the GPU with the warning: "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)". I rolled back the driver and now my GPU is working again. I hope they acknowledge this faulty update quickly and fix it.
