  1. Windows 10 updates removing Nvidia driver


    I know this has been asked before and I've read the replies but I am still having this problem. It's becoming ridiculous having to role back the laptop every time Windows 10 decides to do an update. Why do they continue to remove the Nvidia drivers? I've just dumped the last update again and my Nvidia drive and it's control panel has returned but now it won't let me update the Nvidia driver.

    I see plenty of suggested methods to repair the damage but why is it still happening and the time I've wasted trying to repair everything only for Microsoft to stuff it up again with another update. Is there any prospect of this being sorted and what is the current suggestion to sort this current issue?

    :)

    Windows 10 nVidia Driver Question

    With the Nov Update, Windows 10 became mature enough to give another try. Build 10586 (version 1511) runs great, feels snappy, and has no obvious problems. However, I'm concerned with this version's insistence on loading nVidia's 353.54 driver, which is dated July 13 2015, 4 months ago. On their US website they list all the new drivers as being compatible with Windows 10, (such as 358.91), but they won't load (installer says incompatible with this version of Windows, could find no compatible hardware...). The 353.54 driver runs games without any problems, but why is it taking so long to for nVidia to update this driver? Is it my 780 Ti that's incompatible or is it Windows 10?

    Windows 10 nVidia Driver Question

    It's a weird software problem I guess. Try GeForce Experience to upgrade it, maybe it works. I have a 780 Ti too and have the newest driver in Win 8.1, installed via GF Experience.

    NVIDIA Adds Windows 8 to GeForce Driver Update Stack

    AMD may have been the first to be out with drivers for its Radeon GPUs that are optimized for Windows 8 (WDDM 1.2), but NVIDIA went a step ahead of "special-releases" for its GeForce drivers, and added Windows 8 to its update stack, meaning that Windows 8 will feature in the list of operating systems to pick from, to download drivers. NVIDIA will constantly update these drivers along with mainline releases for Windows 7/Vista and XP. The latest such driver is 296.17. This driver supports GeForce and Quadro GPUs, and according to NVIDIA, is a quick-update over 295.73 WHQL, with the addition of performance optimization for Blacklight: Retribution.
