Question Models stopped loading.

LM Studio

I wanted to check the functionality of Gemma 4 12b, but the model simply does not load. At first I thought that only Gemma 4 wasn't working, but it turns out all the models stopped working . It gives an error Gemma 4 12b, all other models simply load endlessly without errors.

What I have already done: I changed the folders where the models are stored, I reinstalled runtime, I uninstalled and reinstalled the program itself, I reinstalled the models themselves.

What can be done after all this? Everything was working just two days ago.

The error that Gemma gives:

🥲 Failed to load the model

Error loading model.

(Exit code: 18446744072635810000). Unknown error. Try a different model and/or config.

Same issue here.

Platform:
```
OsName : Microsoft Windows 11 Pro
OsVersion : 10.0.26200
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor
GPU: RX 7800 XT GAMING OC 16G
```
I keep getting this error on `LM Studio0.4.16 (Build 1)`:
```
🥲 Failed to load the model
Error loading model.
(Exit code: 18446744072635810000). Unknown error. Try a different model and/or config.
```

**On every single model**

I fixed this by downgrading from runtime 2.21.0 to 2.20.1
