I have an ASUS ROG Strix G532LV and have found that as soon as I upgraded to 27802 and now 27808 the following programs (that I have found to date) will not start up. Kindle, Calibre, Streamfab, Epubor Ultimate, DVDFab. Others (eg. Easus Partition Master) work fine.
It has an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 6GB GDDR6, Intel Core i7-10875H Processor 2.3 GHz (16M Cache, up to 5.1 GHz, 8 cores). All programs work fine on my desktop which also has 27808. I hope they fix it soon as I use these programs a lot on my notebook.
