Uninstall - Drivers Windows 10

Once the driver is uninstalled, the user is often presented with a choice: let Windows automatically find a replacement, or manually install a new one downloaded from the manufacturer's website. For novice users, the automatic method is usually sufficient. Windows 10 will search its vast database for a generic driver that restores basic functionality. For power users—particularly gamers and content creators—manual installation is preferred, as it ensures the hardware is running on the latest, most optimized software provided by the manufacturer.
