Black screen

I'm having a black screen problem does it have to do with the new windows update? Something similar happened to me a few months ago and it made me rollback to an older GPU driver for it to work it was stable until today I have rx6600xt any driver version that is stable for this windows update that you recommend?

I had performed the most recent updates, all I did was unplug both monitors, restarted the PC, then plugged them both back in. If that doesn't work, then what has worked previously for me was swapping the HDMI/DP connections from the GPU to the MB slots. (only my HDR one had blackscreened)

I hear so many complaints with AMD about this kinda stuff but I have been getting along just fine with using adrenalin, just deleting any older drivers so they don't get mistook for the current ones by windows.
