Is it Safe to Swap the DLL?
For single-player games like Watch Dogs: Legion, updating the nvngx_dlss.dll file to version 4.5.10.0 is generally safe and can improve image stability, reducing ghosting and shimmering compared to the stock DLL file. Always use DLSS Swapper to backup your original file first.
