I switched from Nvidia to AMD back when the 9070XT came out and none of that was necessary with my Windows 11 system. I just swapped the card, uninstalled the Nvidia stuff and installed the AMD drivers. Haven't had an issue.
I swear a decent chunk of these issues are "power users" following guides making changes they don't understand in areas that aren't meant to be modified directly, then months later having issues when something tries to read or modify those areas again.
I have obnoxious reboots on my winbox without even changing the hardware.
