Windows 10: Interrupted system restore seems to be working fine?

So earlier today I was having some trouble booting into windows, took a couple of tries everytime, but that got fixed by manually downloading and installing the window updates in the "Window Update Settings", but then after that, my GPU driver no longer worked, (error code 43), tried everything, reinstalled it and stuff, device manager disabling and re-enabling, downloading from website instead of geforce experience, did't work. So I decided to do a system restore point from 2 days ago, it was stuck on restoring registry for like 1.5 hours, so I forced shut down, after turning back on, everything seems to be working fine, AND it somehow fixed the GPU issue without actually going back 2 days. Although everything seems to be fine, I'm wondering if there are any possible subtle issues that may have caused.
This was done on a 1 week old laptop.
