ERROR_GRAPHICS_WRONG_ALLOCATION_DEVICE

ERROR_GRAPHICS_WRONG_ALLOCATION_DEVICE (0xC0262115) means the allocation belongs to a different graphics device from the one processing the request. Multi-adapter, GPU-switching, and device-recreation paths must keep resource ownership explicit.

What to check

Create and use the allocation on the same logical graphics device that submits work for it.
On hybrid or multi-GPU systems, do not assume a resource can move between adapters without an explicit sharing or copy mechanism.
Rebuild adapter-specific resources after changing the active adapter.
