Note: After 20 years of dedicated service, the classic NVIDIA Control Panel is officially retiring for Game Ready and Studio Drivers. For NVIDIA RTX PRO users, the NVIDIA Control Panel will continue to be supported until we have migrated professional features to the NVIDIA app.

Existing installs of the NVIDIA Control Panel will remain on users’ systems, unless they perform a clean installation, and users who still need the NVIDIA Control Panel can continue to download it from the Microsoft Store, but we won’t be adding features, fixes, or other changes.

The NVIDIA app contains all of the modern functionality of the NVIDIA Control Panel available for GeForce RTX GPUs, and much more, while running faster and more efficiently.

I tend to stick with studio drivers but that was also what borked my new systems sleep mode so now I tend to just stick with the manufacturer graphics drivers. I've noticed these NVIDIA drivers keep coming fast and furious but it seems like they keep bringing more and more issues with them. Just browsing this thread would seem to confirm that.
I just had a another look at the Reddit thread that I posted.
Lots of issues being reported now.

What was the previous version before 580.88?

I've got problems on my laptop with 580.88.

Every time I reboot, the display brightness is very dull and I have to go into Windows 11 brightness settings and turn it down lower then back up again to regain the full brightness level.

This Reddit thread also mentions brightness issues with 580.88.
A very similar problem as mine.

I have not had a single issue with 580.88 driver.
When I install a new driver I disable internet then boot into safe mode and run DDU.
Once back into windows with internet still disabled I then install just the driver then once that is done enable internet again.
I disable internet as I have found Win 11 will try to install a driver even if you have windows driver updates disabled.
This way no driver installs until I run the installer.

I have that problem with every version. I've found, letting screen sit 2 or 3 seconds longer before logging in to Microsoft, I can actually see the screen jump brighter. That wait time cures my problem. That's right before I log on to Microsoft. If I shut completely down, I don't have to wait the 2 or 3 seconds for auto bright to kick in.

By default - laptops use the iGPU (intel or AMD) - for handling the Display, and most can't be set to using the dedicated GPU (Nvidia) - unless it comes with a Mux switch (the option to use the Dedicated Nvidia GPU - limited to only couple of models). Laptops also come with extra power saving features - and even Nvidia has a feature which can switch to IGPU or Dedicated GPU based on power needs.

That's probably what's causing above issues (if not some of the power saving featured included with Windows). Try NVCleanstall with a stripped install - stripping away all features except the driver and USB-C and see if this issue persists. If so, try a clean install with DDU - and use NVCleanstall again installing the driver, USB-C + Optimus.

None. Manully configured so nobody except me can change any critical system files. (Don't ask how, it's probably against some rule somewhere)
Installed fine on 24H2 and 25H2 Builds.
Still a problem installing on Canary, the screen turns black and never returns to the normal desktop.
Had to install using RDC to avoid the problem. Same problem on 2 different machines.

It did that on my Beta machine, but the display finally popped back on just before I gave up on it and rebooted before a possible re-install. Thought maybe it was because I did a clean install for a change.

I have the problem only on Canary, 2 different machines.
Works fine on all the other Builds and also on the same machines that fail with Canary.

By default - laptops use the iGPU (intel or AMD) - for handling the Display, and most can't be set to using the dedicated GPU (Nvidia) - unless it comes with a Mux switch (the option to use the Dedicated Nvidia GPU - limited to only couple of models). Laptops also come with extra power saving features - and even Nvidia has a feature which can switch to IGPU or Dedicated GPU based on power needs.

That's probably what's causing above issues (if not some of the power saving featured included with Windows). Try NVCleanstall with a stripped install - stripping away all features except the driver and USB-C and see if this issue persists. If so, try a clean install with DDU - and use NVCleanstall again installing the driver, USB-C + Optimus.
NVCleanstall looks interesting. I've never used it before.

I see it's signed by TechPowerUp, but there is also an NVCleanstall website.
