Windows 10: Recurring loss of HDMI

I am dealing with a ASUS p2540ua laptop with intel graphics 620.


2-3 times a year HDMI video out breaks.
Last time the computer was working fine Tuesday.

Update came through wed.

unable to display videos for meeting Thursday.


I failed to record what "critical" update it was.

But the description did not sound like a graphics or device update.


I had this system running on a "metered" connection trying to prevent this.


This has happened at least 4 times.


I remember that the first time was a faulty driver update. But not the last time.

:)

 

Why exactly is ATi considered be better at HDMI?

I plug my HDMI cable into the card, then into my TV. Those are the steps that I have to do. All the steps you list make absolutely no sense to me.
