So here are the steps you need to follow:

1. Check what is the latest version of Vulkan you have
- Path should be at "C:\Program Files (x86)\VulkanRT\", open the folder with the latest date (that is, highest version number) and run vulkaninfo.exe
- I assume this is the 10.0.65.0 from above, so that's done.

2. Go to "C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\" and look for folders starting with "nv_dispi.inf_amd64_"
- Open the folder with the latest date (should be the date when you installed the drivers, but just pick the latest one)
- Find the "nv-vk64.json" file and copy the path to it
- Path will look like this: C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\nv_dispi.inf_amd64_xxxxxxxx\nv-vk64.json, where xxxxxxxx is the random text in the folder name

3. In registery editor (regedit), go to  "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Khronos\Vulkan\Drivers"
- Right click on the "Drivers" folder and select "New > DWORD (32 bit) Value" and paste the path to nv-vk64.json you got earlier (make sure there are no quotes) as the name
- The value should be 0 by default, but if not, double click the new entry and set value to 0

4. Run the vulkaninfo.exe from the latest version again
- it should say that it loaded the json file from registry, even if not, try looking if RPCS3 can load it


If this doesn't help, then somebody else needs to help.

Thank you very much. Searching for the json-File and changing the registry works.
Vulkan is running again!!!
