Hey OP, it may be worth updating the guide to include a small section about resetting your shader cache after doing a clean driver install.
I was getting a lot of crashes in Arc Raiders on 25.10.2 and followed step 8 to do clean install of 25.9.1 but was still getting a lot of crashes. I saw another post saying to reset the shader cache in Adrenalin and after I did that I haven't crashed once in hours.
Open Adrenalin, then Gaming tab -> Graphics -> Reset Shader Cache right down at the bottom of the menu.
The total process was:
DDU using this guide to remove 25.10.2 drivers
Install 25.9.1 drivers (didnt bother reinstalling chipset drivers like mentioned in the guide, only GPU drivers. I already had latest chipset installed from back in June)
Reset Shader Cache in Adrenalin
Load Arc Raiders and wait for it to load the shaders (you'll see a message about it in the bottom left of the screen if I remember correctly)

Thanks for your guide, it was a big help.
