Windows 10: Drivers to printer damage Windows system files. Windows 10 - 1809 update [KB4467708] x64.

• Windows 10 - 1809 update [KB4467708] x64-based System.
  Clean system, drivers installed for Panasonic printer [Multi-Function Laser (All-in-One)] (model "KX-MB1500").
  Drivers from the official site.
  Driver version - 1.13 for Windows 8/10.
  Last update - 30.nov.2012.

• I install the driver, reboot the system and the "gear" (settings) in the start menu does not work. When I click on the "gear", the settings window opens and instantly closes (without loading). Microsoft support "Get help" using remote access concluded that you need to download the installer windows 10 and reinstall the system while preserving all the files and applications. Settings work, but the driver stopped working.

BEFORE update 1809 everything worked! From the very beginning windows 10.


Are there any solutions to this problem? Is there a "universal" driver for the printer?



Or the only way out is to install a second system, perhaps Linux or Ubuntu?



I do not think that Microsoft will make concessions and fix this problem.

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Windows 7 x64 not detecting GTX295

Background
I installed the 295 and it was not detected. So I downloaded 181.22 for Vista x64, but those drivers didn't work for gaming (CTD). So I installed a GTX 8800 and it was detected and drivers installed automatically from Windows Update.

Now I put the 295 back in, and it installed and was able to run games. However, the nVidia control panel was not available, suggesting that the drivers hadn't installed properly... So I deleted the drivers and rebooted. And... again it lists my 295 as a "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" and a "3D Video Controler", but no drivers can be found by Windows Update.

Question
1) Is there anywhere I can download the Windows 7 x64 drivers and install them manually?

2) Any idea how I can get Windows 7 to recognize my GTX295 so that it can download the proper drivers.

3) Have you had the GTX295 install automatically in Windows 7 x64?
