Windows 10: What is the latest version of WDDM driver and how to install it?

I was reading Windows 10 system requirements and I saw that I need to have DirectX 9 or later with WDDM 1.0 driver. What is the latest version of WDDM and how to install it?

:)

 

WDDM version?

Win10 1803 introduced WDDM 2.4, some vendors already presented drivers supporting it beforehand. (at least Nvidia)

It happened with the previous version too WDDM version empty in Win10 Fall Creators Update

 

WDDM driver? Windows 8.1

Yes nvidia driver packs usually have drivers for 7/8.1/10 (WDDM 1.2/1.3/2) all in one. Just download and install latest nvidia drivers (in this case version 10.18.13.6182). And Windows Update won't offer that optional update anymore.

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) version depends on the architecture of the display card that is designed by the hardware manufacturer, to update the WDDM version you will have to update the display driver from your display driver
manufacturer, if you don’t use a graphics card, installing a new graphics card that supports latest version of WDDM will work.
