Minecraft RTX version 1.16 crashes on launch of any RTX enabled world

I can launch any minecraft world except an RTX enabled one. When I try to create an RTX enabled world, the launcher crashes to desktop on the red Mojang screen.

 

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game over five times.

 

I have an RTX 2080, an i9 9900k, 32gb 3200mhz RAM.. I have the latest Nvidia drivers 456.71.

 

I have tried to turn HDR on and off, no difference.  I have tried every fix I can find on the internet, none of them worked for me. 

I can play other RTX enabled games such as Battlefield V with no issues.
