hashcat benchmark not starting at all

I'm trying to start hashcat on Win10 using my GPU AMD RX580.

What I did so far is:

  1. Uninstalled all AMD drivers and rebooted
  2. Started Driver Fusion cleaned all AMD Display drivers and rebooted
  3. Manually removed OpenCL.dll from C:\windows\system32\ and c:\windows\syswow64 and rebooted
  4. Installed AMD Crimsson driver edition - tried 17.8.2, 17.11.1, 17.11.4

My problem:

When I try to start a benchmark for WPA2 hash with PS D:\crack\hashcat-5.1.0> .\hashcat64.exe -m 2500 -b

It starts and just quits without any output:

PS D:\crack\hashcat-5.1.0> .\hashcat64.exe -m 2500 -b
hashcat (v5.1.0) starting in benchmark mode...

Benchmarking uses hand-optimized kernel code by default.
You can use it in your cracking session by setting the -O option.
Note: Using optimized kernel code limits the maximum supported password length.
To disable the optimized kernel code in benchmark mode, use the -w option.

Output from hashcat -I:

PS D:\crack\hashcat-5.1.0>

The same happens if I try to start mask attack.

Other benchmarks seems to work but when it reaches the WPA2 it just returns me to the command prompt:

PS D:\crack\hashcat-5.1.0> .\hashcat64.exe -b

PS D:\crack\hashcat-5.1.0>

Any idea what could cause this behavior?

It looks like it was a crash in the OpenCL runtime. I have installed the newest Adrenalin Drivers - 19.3.2 , but went into another issue :

PS D:\crack\hashcat-5.1.0> .\hashcat64.exe -b -m 2500
hashcat (v5.1.0) starting in benchmark mode...

* Device #1: ATTENTION! OpenCL kernel self-test failed.

Your device driver installation is probably broken.

Then I used the --self-test-disable option and it started . I have also created a post in the hashcat forum : https://hashcat.net/forum/thread-8226-post-44141.html#pid44141 in case anyone is interested .
