Whenever I attempt to update my Nvidia drivers or even install any Nvidia programs such as GeForce, I get this error and don't know what to do:

Debug Assertion Failed!

Program:

...splayDriver/551.76/Win11_Win10-DCH_64/International/setup.exe

File: f:/dd/vctools/vc7libs/ship/atlmfc/include/atlexcept.h

Line: 95

Expression: false

I have already attempted to delete, repair and reinstall Visual C++ with no success

    Hi again Jonathan.

    The first option you posted told me it had found and fixed the corrupted files, yet the problem persists. The command to get the logs produced empty text files so I am not sure what it fixed/did not.

    I then tried to follow the Windows 11 repair guide, but after I mounted the ISO the program refuses to open and I am not sure where to go from here.

    Try these steps:
    Select Start > Settings > System > Recovery.

    Next to Reset this PC , select Reset PC.

    Try using the Windows media tool again, if you experience the same problem you will need to create installation media on a USB flash to repair Windows.

    Try to exact the full Nvidia driver, then install the Nvidia driver using the .inf file

    first video is extracted and installed via the normal method

    the second video installs the intel GPU driver using .inf file

    see my videos
