I only use Windows for gaming, and the Intel graphics driver keeps getting downgraded by Windows Update. It's pretty annoying to have a fully updated driver get reverted to one that's a few years old. Good luck changing that behavior as well.
- baobun 1y agoThat should happen less as Windows Updates reduces the amount of outdated drivers they ship, right?
- sandworm101 1y agoNo. Without any driver many devices will fall back to generic drivers. An old driver is usually far better than none. Think of a graphics card. With an out-of-date driver your screens should at least function at their designed resolution/number. With literally no driver, you will likely be back at VGA on a single screen. Have fund finding and updating drivers from a website in 640x480.

- baobun 1y agoThe "that" here being: > the Intel graphics driver keeps getting downgraded by Windows Update Windows Update won't remove your already installed driver and replace it with nothing. Not that I'd find that shocking but that's not what's supposedly happening here.
