After I upate nVidia Driver 591.44, ASUS GPU Tweak III not load. I try to reboot, click open on start menu, Uninstall and re-install again, try to install Studio Driver and Game Ready Driver but still not load. In Task manager was not found GPU Tweak III running. 
Now I install nVidia 581.28 (Studio Driver) GPU Tweak III can load normally.

Can confirm the same thing happened after new nvidia driver update. Clean install of gpu tweak 3 doesn't resolve the issue.

Same here (5090), reverting back to previous driver fixed the issue. Guess I'll hold off on the latest Nvidia driver until GPU Tweak III is updated.

The same thing happens to me, and I also have problems with Armoury Crate; it doesn't sync the Aura for me.
