For Windows Folding it appears applying the latest Creators Update for Win 10 borks the FAH. On both my boxen an insistent error message appeared after first boot and all reboots warning that opencl.dll is missing. Shutting down the FAHClient in Task Mgr gets rid of the message but only a re-install of FAH will fix it so folding can resume. Just a word of warning to those who might be away from their boxen for awhile (like I was - 5 months) or who remotely admin their PC's : The update will require some hands on. The scaling on Hi-res displays is improved in Creators tho so if your running at greater than 1080p it's worth the install.

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

To my understanding that happen also before when MS decide to update the video driver. Often required reinstall of original driver because OpenCL missing.

As ChristianVirtual has said, every time Microsoft updates the drivers with the forced updates, you need to re-install the nVidia drivers package because MS does not include the OpenCL portion of it. One of the main reasons I'm leaning more and more towards running CUDA only projects.
Actually I only needed to reinstall FAH (over top of itself - no ID or passkey re-input) and everything went fine. No drivers fuss, still running 373.06's
