If you don’t want it to do this, you can click the “Set Windows Device Installation settings to Default” button, as pictured above.

When you run it for the first time, DDU attempts to prevent Microsoft from continually downloading its own driver updates and overwriting the drivers distributed by AMD and Nvidia. I don’t usually find that necessary, but YMMV.
#Amd driver uninstaller install#
The application advises that you should unplug your computer’s Ethernet cable during the uninstallation and new driver installation process, to prevent Windows 10 from downloading new drivers for your GPU and attempting to install them. Choose “Safe Mode” from the drop-down menu, then hit “Launch” to reboot into Safe Mode: Exit the application and run it again after doing this, and you’ll get a screen like this one. Once you run the application, it’ll recommend that you reboot into Safe Mode (you can click on the “Options” menu and choose the “Enable Safe Mode dialog”). A third-party tool like Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) will remove even these elements, restoring your machine to a pristine state. This speeds the reinstallation process, and it’s part of why you can uninstall one driver, install the next, and still have the same profile settings you were previously using. It’s common for registry keys, folders, and installation files to be left behind. The uninstallers that AMD and Nvidia use don’t actually scrub everything they install to your system. It’s at this point that people typically ask “Is running the default uninstaller from AMD or Nvidia enough, or do I need to use a third-party product to perform a more comprehensive system sweep?” How Third Party Uninstallers Work Some people say that they Uninstall the drivers first than restart and use softwares like Driver Sweep or Cleaner to remove any registry files and than install new Version of the driver where on the other hand some people say that now a days new drivers can be installed without removing the older one and simply upgrades to the new version. Once you’ve uninstalled the old driver, you’ll be prompted to reboot. Unlike Nvidia, which has multiple pieces of software to remove, AMD uses a simplified uninstaller. Click yes, and your Radeon software installation will be removed, along with any other AMD drivers if you’re also running on a Ryzen system. Either way, find the “AMD Software” option and click “Uninstall.” You’ll be asked to confirm this option. You can use either the “Add/Remove Programs” menu from the Windows Settings menu or “Programs and Features” if you prefer to use the Windows 7-style Control Panel. The first uninstallation step is extremely simple.
