System Information
Operating system: Windows 10 Family
Graphics card: nVidia GTX 1080

Blender Version
Broken: 2.93
Worked: 2.92

Activating Optix on Cycles doesn't work anymore, it stay stucked with message "Loading render kernels (may take a few minute the first time)" and when i want to deactivate Optix or anything else, Blender freezes definitely then crashes, i have to close it manually. I have this problem since i installed the new 2.93 version.

On Render properties - Cycles mode - Denoising - Viewport, activate it. Then the space should stay empty with just objects outline visible and the message "Loading render kernels (may take a few minute the first time)", and nothing more. Deactivate Optix, change the viewport to solid mode, some actions like this and the software should freeze and crash

@merill How long did you wait for the loading to complete? It may take more than 5 minutes.

@merill , can you please confirm if it still crashes with fresh 2.93 builds? (https://builder.blender.org/download/daily)

It may take more than 5 minutes.

I think this much time is expected (Unsure though, I use AMD GPU)

Currently having the same issue. Loading CUDA works fine, but Optix will not load even after 20 minutes of sitting idle. Blender Version 2.93.4

CUDA CPU works
CUDA GPU works
OPTIX CPU works
OPTIX GPU doesn't work

I have same problem with 2.93.1 and 2.93.6 my GPU is GeForce RTX 2060.
Denoising is off, reproduced with default cube scene.
If I can help somehow, I can debug this on my machine with Visual Studio and get full dump if that can help.
In such case, please contact me using email.
