DDU allows you to safely uninstall outdated or conflicting drivers with other software, as well as disable unnecessary video cards at the hardware level. Before using the program, you should learn the nuances of video cards, as well as the configuration algorithm.
Display Driver Uninstaller organizes the step-by-step removal of software with the output of hints and event options. The client of the program will ask you to enable the safe mode of the computer. To do this you need to reboot the device and run DDU as an administrator. In the safe mode only the Windows drivers remain operational and the video card components are disabled to complete their complete removal from the system.

As the software is updated, which in the latest versions of Windows is carried out continuously, new features and options appear. Before using the DDU, you should update information about the capabilities of the utility.
The program supports 3 modes:
Before starting the mode, the user selects a video driver from a list by manufacturer and name. The description log provides detailed information about the installed card and software version.

The download package is downloaded from the manufacturer's official website, taking into account the specifications of the video memory.
The driver auto-update can be performed through 2 channels: internal and external. In the first case, Windows will download the publicly available software with lower image quality, in the second - the factory latest version.
When uninstalling, the user can set up other video card/system operations as well.
