FAQ

How do I fully remove my GPU drivers - as in how to uninstall NVIDIA drivers cleanly?
Use Apps & Features (or Programs and Features on older Windows) to remove all NVIDIA entries, reboot, then optionally run DDU in Safe Mode for a deep clean. Reboot again before reinstalling the NVIDIA Graphics Driver Uninstall Guide.

Should I use DDU every time?
Not always. Use it when switching GPU brands, resolving persistent errors (Code 43, black screen), or after failed installs. A standard uninstall is usually enough for routine updates.

Will Windows install a driver automatically after I uninstall?
Yes. Windows may load a basic Microsoft Display Adapter or an older NVIDIA driver. If you’re preparing a clean install, disconnect from the internet or pause driver updates until you install the correct package for your Video Adapters.

How can I check my current driver version before I start?
Press Win+R → type dxdiag → Display tab, or open NVIDIA Control Panel → System Information. You can also record it here: .
