NVIDIA today released GeForce software version 445.87 WHQL. The drivers come game-ready for "Minecraft with RTX" beta. Optimization is also added for "Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2: Campaign Remastered," "Saints Row: The Third Remastered," and "SnowRunner." Among the issues fixed are a BSOD noticed with "Rise of the Tomb Raider" in DirectX 12 mode, a black flickering in "Doom Eternal," some DirectX 11 games failing to launch with Image Sharpening being enabled, and a graphical corruption when waking up a notebook display from sleep. Grab the drivers from the link below.

NVCleanInstall is not aware of this new version.
They did remove the NGXcore folder from the driver in 445.87.
Might be better to post in the NVCleanInstall section.

Edit: what was your trouble running it, I just installed basic min driver plus HDaudio and physX and all seemed to install fine.I used NVCleanInstall 15 version.

I have been having to run v442.74 as 445.75 was causing a bunch of graphical anomalies in Monster Hunter World, namely screen tearing and other odds and ends in areas with fog, and where particle effects were high.

Wondering if this version keeps these bugs.

They did remove the NGXcore folder from the driver in 445.87.

Some info
copy/paste

""Here is @ManuelG response on this from reddit and Nvidia forum:
This is by design. The NGXCore is now installed via declarative inf so this folder will no longer be present. The files for this component will now be present inside display.driver folder to match the DCH driver structure.""
