I tried to install my Nvidia update yesterday when it prompted me to do so. It took a while to download and then during the installation process it failed so badly, I had restart my laptop . I'm going to wait for the next release before I try to upgrade the graphics driver again. I do not game, so I'm not missing out on much.

Nothing new, it seems like if you install a hotfix that is newer than the released driver, the Release date in GeForce Experience would always be some date that is a long time ago, maybe because there is some database that GeForce Experience talks to.

I have been having an issue with my Windows desktop and apps becoming unclickable when I was using v531.18 I think..
randomly.. and not too often... not sure if it was a Nvidia display driver issue or a Windows bug after the second to last update...
has anyone else noticed this happening to them too?

Nvidia releases fix for GeForce driver causing CPU spikes

Some users are seeing CPU usage go up by 10-15% after closing games on the latest Nvidia driver.

Click to expand...

Exactly what mine was doing...nvidia container using 15% of my cpu after exiting a game. Re-installed the previous driver. Might give the hotfix a try.

EDIT: Yup, hotfix did the trick.
