Description
Since Windows 11 24H2 update it seems that Windows can get into a broken state where probing encoders (or likely also just using DXGI API) will break Sunshine in such a way that it cannot start any stream nor the libdisplaydevice is able to access the windows API to do any changes.
While this is not a perfect solution to the problem, the user can at least do something (plug or unplug displays) or libdisplaydevice could try restoring previous config once the API is available.
