Fixed Issues

    • AMD FreeSync™ technology may experience performance issues with Borderless Fullscreen application support when a secondary display is attached and has dynamic content running such as video playback in a web browser or if other applications or game launchers are running on the primary screen in the background. A workaround if this issue is experienced is to minimize all other running applications that are on the primary desktop display or on non-primary extended displays.
    • Radeon ReLive may fail to install during installation on some system configurations.
    • Battlefield™1 may experience flashing or corruption when running in Multi GPU with Radeon RX 400 series.
    • Instant Replay fails to enable itself after it has been turned off due to content protection.
