I'm getting an error when trying to run the program after install 
'Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\Ryan\Documents\GpuInfo.txt.tmp'.
 
I've tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling. 
 
0.2.6 still works for me though.
 
Edit: I'm running a FE RTX 2080

Didn't experience this issue on 0.2.8. Installing 0.2.8 doesn't even create a file like that at all for me. Must be related to RTX cards only.

You could try creating a GpuInfo.txt.tmp file in the location specified to see if that might allow the program to start.

Run as administrator maybe? My guess would be it doesn't have permissions to create the temp file in that location so fails, running as admin might do the trick.

If you are using Windows 10 and are logged into a Microsoft account, there may not exist a 'C:\Users\Ryan\Documents\GpuInfo.txt.tmp' as your Microsoft account path would be different from your 'C:\Users\[PC Name]\Documents\...' ... for example, my PC name is 'Tom Bombadil' and my Microsoft account is [MyName]; EVGA's Precision X1 was looking for 'C:\Users\Tom Bombadil\Documents\GpuInfo.txt.tmp' where the 'Documents' folder didn't exist because it was under 'C:\Users\[MyName]' (it also didn't help that my 'C:\Users\[MyName]\Documents' folder was on a separate drive from my OS).

TLDR: Create the path 'C:\Users\Ryan\Documents' then try again

I moved my Documents folder to another drive. Creating a folder Documents on the C: drive fixed the issue. Thanks!

Are you running this Version on your GTX 1080 Ti K|NGP|N ?
