How to Uninstall the Windows Updates on My NVIDIA Driver

Windows Updates provides updates to your computer for security updates, operating system updates, software and optional items such as drivers. When you install an NVIDIA driver from Windows Update, this driver is usually the most recent or best suited for your system. In some cases, the driver installed by Windows Update is not the best one for your video card. If you notice problems after installing a driver for your NVIDIA card from Windows Update, Windows provides an option to restore the driver to its previous version.
