NVIDIA Releases GeForce 397.55 Hotfix Drivers
NVIDIA today released the GeForce 397.55 Hotfix drivers to address various issues that many users have been experiencing. Primarily, the drivers fix the pesky problem where a few GTX 1060 models would throw up a Code 43 error in Device Manager after driver installation putting users' systems into an endless restart loop. The new drivers also contain fixes for occasional Netflix playback stuttering and the display driver being removed when a system has been idling during an extended period of time. Lastly, NVIDIA added support for Microsoft Surface Book notebooks.DOWNLOAD: NVIDIA GeForce 397.55 Hotfix Driver

'' Windows 10: Driver may get removed after PC has been left idle for an extended period of time. ''
it was hard enough for them to deal with a real OS' now 10 is too much to keep up with as intrusive and ever changing with its forced updating and forced drivers like in a article just this week on that new release of 10 how guys said there settings got changed to on or auto behind there backs ? see you aint got a clue every time you go on line with it what Microsoft got going on under your nose .
no way in h311 I could ever trust it [I don't even trust them with 7 anymore in some time now ]
you personal computer is now there public computer as they see fit to be in use . I'd have to really hate someone's guts to recommend 10 to use . its bad news when you take a good look under its rug [opinion]
they say here '' The fix applies to Windows 7/8 also but the side effect was different. '' but not explained that I can find so far maybe just saying that to not make 10 look so bad
notice in the latest drivers release notes there plenty of win 10 issues and fix but under win-7 issues and fix blank space ? ya .....
Okay,installing, here it goes.....
''If you're running Windows 10 Home, there is no supported way to delay the installation of updates. When a feature update is available, it will install in the next window outside Active Hours. You can try various workarounds, such as shutting off the Windows Update service or setting your network connection as metered, but these only briefly postpone the inevitable.''
''In Pro, Enterprise, and Education editions, you can defer feature updates for up to 16 months after their initial release to the Semi-Annual Channel (Targeted). In addition, you can defer quality updates, including the monthly Patch Tuesday fixes, by up to 30 days.''
One of the most important changes in Windows 10 is its approach to updates. Security and reliability updates are now delivered as cumulative updates rather than individually, and you can't refuse an update (although you can defer updates).

key wording is '' temporarily ''
the malware service called windows 10 . that's all there is to it

397.55 seems to be working fine,my system didn't explode. I think I see a vague pattern, first revision of every new "node" of driver (like 397.xx) apparently has some bugs, you need to wait for next revisions from the same node (like 397.55 after 397.31) to have hose fixed.
I've been using gf experience for quite some time, I don't know how it can be problamatic. All it does is set optimized settings for your system,which you don't have to apply, and tells you about driver updates,which you don't have to install.
You use a tinfoil hat on your PC against those "gimmickware" programs too ?
and it is what it is gimmick and crap ware .
have a nice day if you can my friend ..lol,,, I know I am

Note that importing random registry keys random internet frogs encourage you to try is not a best practice, so you may want to open it with a text editor first just in case. It's harmless though and works. ;)
P.S.
And somebody decided to hijack the thread to complain about Windows 10.
Sometimes I hate the internet.
