Windows 10: Windows 10 1903 Nvidia driver issues

Hello,
So three weeks ago my computer decided to install the 1903 update of windows 10 after I turned it on. After the update, I went to Add or remove programs to see if any of my software or drivers had been uninstalled, everything seemed fine until I noticed 2 out of the 3 Nvidia drivers disappeared from my add or remove programs list.

To be more specific the drivers that were previously there before the 1903 update decided to take effect, were the following:

• NVIDIA 3D Vision Driver (version 388.13)
• NVIDIA Graphics Driver (version 388.13)

As of now, The only driver from Nvidia that was under add or remove programs was the HD Audio driver (forgot the current version but it's still there so it looks like its still working). I did check the Nvidia website and it said that the newest version of that driver is version 436.30 (WHQL) which was released on September 10th of 2019 and that was after my computer installed the update on August 29th, 2019.

I don't know if people are still having this issue as of now, whether if the newest driver version is compatible with the 1903 version of windows 10, or if Nvidia is still working on a fix to make it compatible with 1903. On the website, It doesn't say if its compatible with this version of windows that I've mentioned earlier.

I'm just as frustrated as they are and I'm afraid that if I install the newest driver I will have either the same problem as mentioned before or more additional problems even after my problem has been resolved. I don't know whether if I should download the latest driver from the Nvidia website or if I should go into device manager and let it automatically update the driver for me.

In case you're wondering, my GPU is: MSI - GeForce GTX 1060 6GB Gaming X Video Card. I also don't want to confuse this 1060 with the other Geforce 1060's when it comes to updating and installing a new driver.

If you guys are still having this issue even if its before or after you installed the new driver update could you please let me know? and If you guys could help me out, it would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help!

:)

Windows 10 1903 Nvidia driver issues

You don't have an issue, you have a working driver.

Mine shows no Nvidia driver at all in Apps & Features, not done so for a few years.
The 1903 Win 10 version upgrade did a new Nvidia driver install to a version not listed in MS update catalogue or Nvidia catalogues, dated about Mar 19.
Broadly it has been updated about every year. I assume there are differences in hardware that is detected and an appropriate driver delivered.
I do test them and note them. I prefer that than what amounts to being a beta tester for a latest driver.
