I have been using Furmark (2.4.0.0, latest) for stresstesting my gpu. My main focus is undervolting, and of course this risks going to low and crashing the AMD adrenaline driver (24.9.1, latest). The crash itself is expected, but my issue is that the client (Furmark CLI) gets stuck. Only ending the process through Win Taskmanager ends the pc freeze, after which the Furmark GUI is still broken, but can be closed. At this point the gpu driver has already reset itself to default settings and the pc can be used again. While frozen, the client uses much a lot of cpu capacity (25-30%).

Would it be an option to allow a complete shutdown of the client, preventing the freeze?
For example Superposition 2017 also crashes with the gpu driver, but does not freeze, instead mentioning the crash and allowing for tweaking and a rerun without a restart of the program.
