This step really takes a long time .. same with the original NVIDIA installer

and for some odd reason it would always fail to install a generic "PCI Device" driver on my RTX 2080

Any chance that's the USB-C driver and you unselected it?

Thank you, it looks really good.

Would it be possible to differentiate between the Game Ready Driver (GRD) and Studio Driver (SD)?

I have the Studio Driver installed, and this app offers to install the latest Game Ready Driver (the current Studio Driver release is 431.86 whereas the current Game Ready Driver is 436.48).

Off the top, please add in an option for beta updates as well. They are great once in a while and can take quite long to full release. Great tool overall! It will drop so many steps from an update routine. Thank you for this.

I have Quadro K5000M in Dell Precision Laptop.
