The problem cropped up again a week later. I noticed just deleting the (recently created) data_ files (not the entire folder) seemed to fix the problem. Also, I didn't need to restart the computer, just restart Chrome (which was good, because I was in the middle of a Zoom meeting). So this seems to be a quick fix, which is great - but do you have any idea as to what might be causing it so the cause could be corrected (rather than just the symptoms)?

generally it is related to corrupted shader cache and if a graphics driver is updated this sometimes will cause it. this is the most frequent reason it seems

Unfortunately, this doesn't fix it for me. I never had this issue at all with my former 1070 TI but I recently upgraded to the RX 6950 XT and it started happening. In my case, the entire screen just goes black like there's no signal coming from the GPU at all. Turning the monitor off and on brings the display back but if I switch tabs a few more times, it goes black again. I tried turning hardware acceleration off and it fixed the issue but it kinda bugs me that I have to do this when my old gpu worked just fine with hardware acceleration on. I guess what people say about radeon driver being buggy is true
