Windows 10: I checked for Graphic Driver updates today using Device Manager

Hi. I checked for Graphic Driver updates today using Device Manager and it downloaded and installed an update. However after the update I noticed that the Intel Graphics Settings was missing from both the desktop right click menu and the Control Panel itself. I did a System Restore and that fixed the issue (and rolled back the driver). I really don't need the Intel Graphics Settings but I like things that are supposed to be there to be there (I'm kind of obsessive that way). I haven't tried finding and downloading the Graphics Driver software from the Internet to see if that will work without causing my issue. Note that I have no problem(s) with the current Display Driver. I just try keeping things up to date. Any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Intel graphics control panel

Intel graphics control panel question: I have a Lenovo Thinkpad R500 running Windows 10, with Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1) graphics. I can't bring up the Intel graphics control panel. I have the impression
it's not available because the age of the Thinkpad makes Windows 10 drivers not available. Any answers?

 

Intel Graphics Settings

Your best option is to re-install the Intel HD Graphics driver software, which will include the Intel HD Graphics Control Panel

Make a note of the version of your HD Graphics - You will find this in Device Manager - Display Driver (accessible by right clicking your Start Button)

Go to the
Intel Website and download the latest driver for that version of Intel HD Graphics

 

Clipped Intel Graphics Control Panel


Hello ladies and gentlemen

Quite a strange problem appeared the past year where my intel control panel is not displayed correctly. I currently have the latest drivers and software according to intel.

My control panel appears to be clipped like this









I could go on and on but you get the idea.

The thing is that I have tried everything I have thought of and it appears to have no effect over the situation.

My specs are :

i5-4300m cpu with the HD 4600 intel HD graphics
an 8970m gpu
windows 10
an ssd and an hybrid hdd

This is a laptop


Things I have tried :
Reinstalling the drivers from scratch
isntalling only the intel drivers
installing only the amd drivers
installing older drivers and software (intel ones)


My problem persists. Anyone has any ideas?
