Hey everyone! I have a question about DDU. I'm not changing drivers from AMD to NVIDIA, but my drivers haven't been updated in a while and my formatting is outdated too. There might be old driver files from a long time ago hiding somewhere, and I wonder if I can use DDU to clear all driver-related files since the first installation before installing the latest NVIDIA drivers. Maybe it could help free up some storage? I don't want to risk damaging my current Windows setup. Have you used DDU before?

You can attempt it, I understand Windows maintains logs for all Nvidia drivers but DDU should clear them.

Hi Colif! Could you assist with deciding which checkboxes to select and uncheck? The options are quite overwhelming. I just need to delete all the old driver files. Thanks!
