Windows 10: How can I remove 'digital display adapter' driver from laptop monitor?

Hello,I'm having an issue with the driver for my laptop monitor on Windows 10.

display driver stopped working in viewsonic monitor

Are you referring to the drivers for the (nVidia) display adapter, or the one for the monitor?

In my experience, monitors have always worked when they are identified as generic plug and play devices. I always try to install the monitor "drivers" if they can be found, though. (I use the quotation marks because the "drivers" are usually just an .inf file that describes the monitor's capabilities.)

The display adapter drivers are another matter. If they are for a desktop. I suggest getting them from nvidia.com. (That's if nVidia offers direct downloads for the UAE.) Laptops are another matter, but your post reads like you're not doing that.
