ERROR_GRAPHICS_TRY_AGAIN_LATER
ERROR_GRAPHICS_TRY_AGAIN_LATER (0xC0262104) means a transient graphics condition prevented the operation from completing and the caller should retry later. It does not by itself identify a failed adapter or bad resource.
What to check
- Retry with bounded backoff and a clear timeout instead of a tight retry loop.
- Recheck whether a display, session, or allocation state is still changing before resubmitting work.
- If the condition does not clear, collect the first preceding graphics or display-driver error rather than relying only on this retry status.
