I wouldn't update.

If the current driver is stable and new-game support is unnecessary, compare documented fixes and known issues first. Check official applicability and whether a later release supersedes it before installation.

If something broke after updating

Check whether Windows still boots, then try settings, an official clean installation, and only then consider a previous driver.

1. Check whether Windows still boots

If you can sign in, back up important files and close graphics workloads. If not, use Windows recovery first.

When only a specific game crashes after an NVIDIA update

Check the game-specific known issues, then evaluate a clean install or a return to the last working driver.

1. Check the game-specific release-note entries

First check whether the affected game appears in the driver’s open or fixed issue list.

Risk: low · source checked 2026-08-31 · NVIDIA GeForce 드라이버

2. Clean-install only when setup failure or corruption is plausible

Use NVIDIA’s manual clean-install procedure only when installation failed or the existing driver setup may be damaged. Do not reinstall solely because one game crashed.
