    Once installed, you will see “Windows has successfully updated your driver software” message. If updates are not available, you will see “No updates were found” message.

    Please note that updating to the newest version of the display driver might not fix the issue in some cases. In other words, you might see the error even when you are running the latest version of the display driver. If updating the driver didn’t help,
    please try the following solutions.
