Please try completely removing the Nvidia drivers using DDU https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html then download and install the latest driver from nvidia.com.

Do you have any Mods or CC? If so move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then test the game.

If it works now check for updates to your Mods and CC. Add it back a little at a time while testing until you have found all that are broken.
