2]卸载(Uninstall)并重新安装图形(Reinstall Graphics)驱动程序
由于问题是由驱动程序引起的,因此此解决方案需要您简单地卸载并重新安装图形驱动程序(uninstall and reinstall the graphics drivers)。
注意:(Note:)仅当您有Intel/AMD设置时,您才 需要同时安装Intel和AMD驱动程序。如果您有AMD处理器,则无需下载和安装Intel驱动程序。请记住,在安装AMD(AMD)驱动程序之前,您需要安装Intel驱动程序。
此外,在尝试安装驱动程序之前,请确保您的防病毒应用程序已禁用。众所周知,这些第 3 方安全应用程序会导致安装过程出现一些问题。从任务栏(Taskbar)右侧的系统托盘/通知区域禁用 AV 程序后,您现在可以继续执行以下操作。
拥有 Intel 处理器和 AMD 显卡的 PC 用户(PC users who have an Intel processor and AMD graphics),请执行以下操作:
禁用Windows 更新(Windows Update)将阻止Windows自动更新驱动程序。
如果您不确定您的设备上安装了哪款英特尔(Intel) 显卡(Graphics),您可以运行 dxdiag 来查找(run dxdiag to find out).
C:\AMD
- 在该位置,按CTRL + A选择内容,然后点击键盘上的DELETE 。
- 现在,下载并安装最新版本的 AMD 驱动程序(download and install the latest version of AMD drivers)。
- (Reboot)安装AMD(AMD)驱动程序后重新启动您的 PC 。
拥有 AMD 处理器和 AMD 显卡的 PC 用户(PC users who have AMD processor and AMD graphics),请执行以下操作:
如果您有AMD处理器/APU,则无需下载Intel显卡驱动程序。他们官方网站上的AMD驱动程序对您来说已经足够了。
因此,请重复上述步骤以卸载和重新安装AMD驱动程序/软件,但在此之前,通过服务暂时禁用(Services)Windows 更新(Windows Update)。
完成该过程并重新启动计算机后,Catalyst Control Center 无法启动(Catalyst Control Center cannot be started)问题应该得到解决。否则(Else),继续下一个解决方案。
3]全新(Clean)安装图形(Graphics)驱动程序

注意:(Note:)如果您同时拥有英特尔显卡(Intel Graphics)和AMD显卡,请确保在安装AMD显卡之前更新(AMD)英特尔(Intel Graphics)显卡。请参阅解决方案 2(Solution 2)中拥有 Intel 处理器和 AMD 显卡(PC users who have an Intel processor and AMD graphics)部分的 PC 用户(如果您还没有的话)并按照步骤操作。
此外,在尝试安装驱动程序之前,请确保您的防病毒应用程序已禁用。众所周知,这些第 3 方安全应用程序会导致安装过程出现一些问题。从任务栏(Taskbar)右侧的系统托盘/通知区域禁用 AV 程序后,您现在可以继续执行以下操作:
此实用程序清除以前的图形驱动程序及其任何剩余文件。这很有用,因为它确保正确安装了较新的驱动程序。大多数情况下,由于以前的版本及其冲突的剩余文件,您的新驱动程序将无法正确安装。
- 完成后,按照上述解决方案 2中的说明下载(Solution 2)AMD最新驱动程序。
- 接下来,清除C:\AMD目录的内容,如解决方案 2 所示。
- 接下来,暂时从服务中禁用 Windows 更新。
- 接下来,通过程序(Programs)和功能(Features)小程序卸载AMD驱动程序/软件。
- 现在,您需要启动到安全模式才能运行Display Driver Uninstaller。
- 显示驱动程序卸载程序(Display Driver Uninstaller)完成其工作后,您现在可以安装您下载的AMD驱动程序。(AMD)
安装驱动程序后,请正常重新启动 PC。启动时,您应该全新安装驱动程序,并且Catalyst Control Center 无法启动(Catalyst Control Center cannot be started)问题应该得到解决。
AMD Catalyst Control Center cannot be started; How to open it?
If when you try to open the AMD Catalyst Control Center you receive the error message “Catalyst Control Center cannot be started“, then this post is intended to help you. In this post, we will identify the possible causes, as well as provide the corresponding solutions you can try to remediate this issue.
When you encounter this issue, you’ll receive the following full error message;
Catalyst Control Center cannot be started.
There are currently no settings that can be configured using Catalyst Control Center.
When this error occurs, you won’t be able to open the Catalyst Control Center and, therefore, make any changes in the settings.
The reason behind this issue is usually related to driver problems. Either the driver files are corrupt or there is a compatibility issue causing this problem.
AMD Catalyst Control Center cannot be started
AMD Catalyst Control Center (formerly named ATI Catalyst Control Center) is a device driver and utility software package for ATI/AMD line of video cards.
If you’re faced with this Catalyst Control Center cannot be started issue on your AMD-based Windows 8.1/10 PC, you can try our recommended solutions in the order presented below to resolve the issue.
- Install the ccc2_install file
- Uninstall and Reinstall Graphics drivers
- Clean install the Graphics drivers
Let’s take a look at the description of the process involved concerning each of the listed solutions.
1] Install the ccc2_install file
This solution requires you to run a file named ccc2_install in the AMD folder. It has been known that once you run this file, the Catalyst Control Center cannot be started issue will be resolved.
Here’s how:
- Press Windows key + R to invoke the Run dialog.
- In the Run dialog box, copy and paste the file/directory path below and hit Enter.
C:\Program Files\AMD\CCC2\Install
- At the location, there should be a ccc2_install application file.
- Right-click the file and select Run as administrator.
After running the file the issue should be resolved. If not, continue with the next solution.
2] Uninstall and Reinstall Graphics drivers
Since the problem is caused by drivers, this solution requires you to simply uninstall and reinstall the graphics drivers.
Note: You need to install both Intel and AMD drivers only if you have an Intel/AMD setup. If you have an AMD processor then you don’t have to download and install the Intel drivers. Keep in mind that you need to install the Intel drivers before installing the AMD drivers.
Also, before trying to install the drivers, make sure your anti-virus application is disabled. These 3rd-party security applications are known to cause some issues with the installation process. Once you have the AV program disabled from the system tray/notification area on the right of the Taskbar, you can now continue as follows.
PC users who have an Intel processor and AMD graphics, do the following:
Disabling Windows Update will prevent Windows from automatically updating the drivers.
If you’re not sure which Intel Graphics is installed on your device, you can run dxdiag to find out.
- Now that you have the latest Intel drivers installed, you can proceed to uninstall the AMD drivers/software via the Programs and Features applet.
- Once you have done that, invoke the Run dialog, and type the file/directory path below and hit Enter.
C:\AMD
PC users who have AMD processor and AMD graphics, do the following:
If you have an AMD processors/APU’s then you don’t have to download the Intel graphics drivers. The AMD drivers from their official website will be enough for you.
So, repeat the steps as described above for uninstalling and reinstalling the AMD drivers/software but before you do, temporarily disable the Windows Update via Services.
After completing the procedure and restarting your computer, the Catalyst Control Center cannot be started issue should be resolved. Else, continue with the next solution.
3] Clean install the Graphics drivers
If Solution 2 above didn’t work for you then you might have to perform a clean install of the Graphics drivers.
Note: If you have Intel Graphics and AMD graphics as well then make sure you update the Intel Graphics before installing the AMD graphics. See the PC users who have an Intel processor and AMD graphics section in Solution 2 (if you haven’t already) and follow the steps.
Also, before trying to install the drivers, make sure your anti-virus application is disabled. These 3rd-party security applications are known to cause some issues with the installation process. Once you have the AV program disabled from the system tray/notification area on the right of the Taskbar, you can now continue as follows:
This utility clears up the previous graphic drivers and any of their leftover files. This is useful because it makes sure that the newer driver is installed properly. Most times your new driver won’t be installed properly because of the previous version and its conflicting leftover files.
- Once done, download the AMD latest drivers as described in Solution 2 above.
- Next, clear the contents of the C:\AMD directory as shown in Solution 2.
- Next, temporarily disable Windows Update from Services.
- Next, uninstall the AMD drivers/software via the Programs and Features applet.
- Now, you’ll need to boot into Safe Mode to run the Display Driver Uninstaller.
- After the Display Driver Uninstaller completes its job, you can now install the AMD drivers you downloaded.
Once the drivers are installed, restart your PC normally. On boot, you should have a clean install of the drivers and the Catalyst Control Center cannot be started issue should be resolved.
