AMDRyzenMasterDriverV20 keeps reappearing in my registry even after deleting it several times. I had another issue which led me to this post: . A solution in the comments by u/DouginDisguise worked for a little bit, then whenever I checked again after another crash it was back.
Edit: AMD's Cleanup Utility has seemed to removed the issue.

Hello, today I had to reinstall my windows. After installing it I ran into problems with ryzen master not being able to start.
I have tried reinstalling it, deleting Registry files and other online solutions I found.
NOTHING worked for me.
Then as a last hope I contacted one of the most knowledgeable people I know that found a way to fix it. And the fix is extremely illogical.
Chances are, if you have this error you are using and AMD GPU.
Chances, yet again, I would assume you installed the GPU drivers through AMD Adrenaline, but perhaps you forgot to clean on Advanced Settings and check the "Factory Reset" option.
You might think what does the GPU driver have to do with Ryzen master? My guess is as good as yours.
I deleted my Adrenaline, reinstalled it, clicked on factory reset and after installation and PC reboot.
RYZEN MASTER WORKS!
Does anyone know how to fix this?
It seems that the usual cause of the problem is that ImagePath is pointing to the wrong file path for the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\AMDRyzenMasterDriver
Check the file path for the ImagePath value and change it to the actual file path. (Find the correct path, then hold down the Shift key, right click on the file and Copy as path)
Hi _AW_
Yes, it does every time I turn on or reboot the computer.
I Updated every AMD driver ( also GPU driver), but the error still remains.
Hi so I'm getting this error even though I don't use RyzenMaster, funny thing is that I thought I was getting this error due to not having it so I installed it and figured that would fix it. But it didn't it shows every reboot, it used to be "The AMDRyzenMasterDriverV22 service failed to start due to the following error: The system cannot find the file specified."
But now its "The AMDRyzenMasterDriverV22 service failed to start due to the following error: Cannot create a file when that file already exists."
Odd thing is that this error started on 9/28/2023 which is the same time I had installed Adrenaline driver 23.9.3, I have now since installed driver 23.10.2 so I thought that would fix it but no it just changed the message of the error. I tried delete the old AMDRyzenMasterDriverV20 in my registry like I saw some folks do but it just resiantlls itself again. Any other advice?
