Fatal error: Vulkan-1.dll incorrectly installed

Hi, I know this is a common issue and the pop up message itself shows how to fix it. But I just couldn't, I installed the 'VulkanRT-1.3.231.1-Installer' that its linked in the error message, but It's not working. 
I tried to search for the Vulkan-1.dll in the RPCS3 directory and I couldn't find it either, so I couldn't delete it.
Maybe it could be that my RPCS3 directory is installed in the D:// instead of the C:// disk?
I didn't know how to post the log so I post an image of the error message:

Hi Ani,

I seem to be having the same issue.  I have screengrabs (please see enclosed) but basically, this is a vulkan-1.dll error.  I've followed the instructions to install but it still gives me the same error.  Drivers are up-to-date.  Ran VkDiag and it feels everything is in order.  Per the message in Capture01, vulkan-1.dll isn't in the rpcs3's installation folder so there's nothing to delete.  Any help with this?

Thanks!

False positives for this error are already fixed, download the latest build and extract on top of your current one

Thank you so much!! It worked, such a great team.
I lost all my data cause I erased the folder when it wasn't working, but its okay lol.
Thanks again!

I just registered to reply to this.

Same error here, happened after updating RPCS3.

Extracting latest build over old one does not fix the error. Extracting latest build to new folder, installing firmware and still get same error. VkDiag says 'everything seems to be fine'.

Something has been broken by one of the recent RPCS3 updates.

That's not an incorrect error if you have that DLL on the RPCS3 folder.
Read what the error says.

If you don't have that DLL on the RPCS3 folder, show a screenshot of the entire RPCS3 folder.

Fixed with latest build installed to new folder - my shortcut was still pointing to old version. Thanks.
