Hey @merlinmaja1,
This should typically just happen the first time you launch the game after the patch, but we have seen a number of other reports that this continues through multiple launches.
The workaround below has helped some others in this situation so that may be worth a try.
1.) Install latest drivers
2.) Disable the Shader Cache option in your graphics card settings (e.g. Nvidia Control Panel, you can right-click your desktop to open this)
3.) Hit apply
4.) Enable Shader Cache
5.) Hit apply
6.) Restart Computer
We're still currently investigating this as those steps don't help out in all cases, but hopefully that clears things up for you for the time being.
