Hello Windows, I am having some trouble updating my NVIDIA Game Ready Driver on my Windows 11 Computer, every time I try to start the update I get an error that says, 'This NVIDIA driver is not compatible with this version of Windows', I recently had windows up to date the current version I have is Version 23H3 (OS Build 22631.3593). I tried everything, reinstall GeForce Experience, download the latest version of the Driver online, and even install it manually through the device manager. But nothing seemed to work, can you help me find out what is causing the problem and how to fix it?

    Up to NVIDIA version 546.33, all the drivers were compatible, but around 546.65 from last January, said driver plus newer versions began to display errors. Updating the Drivers worked perfectly fine when I updated the Windows on my Surface Studio in 2022, but in January 2024 that's when the problems began

    Uninstall GeForce experience, then download Nvidia App . install Nvidia app. This app more advanced then GeForce experience.

    Download nvidia driver 522.44 from nvidia official website.

    Install driver manually.

    Hello,Joseph Hernández1

    Thank you for posting in the Microsoft community.

    I see that you are getting "Nvidia Graphics Driver is not compatible with this version of Windows" error when updating Nivdia Graphics Driver, it may be due to your old version of Graphics Driver is not fully and cleanly uninstalled. Please manually uninstall the currently installed graphics driver by using the graphics driver uninstaller tool, a recommended method is provided here:

    And then through the GeForce Experience program to automatically detect and reinstall the driver, you try this method first, if there is any news or encountered any problems, please feel free to contact us.
