Running into issues with your current Nvidia drivers? Here’s how you can remove them from your PC

Regularly updating your GPU’s drivers is one of the best things you can do to maintain your PC. From improving stability to enhancing performance and getting rid of bugs, it is also one of the best things you can do to maintain your PC. However, there are rare cases when you might want to uninstall the drivers. For example, you may have corrupt drivers that could result in your GPU not sending any output to your monitor. It’s also possible to run into compatibility issues if you upgrade to a new graphics card without uninstalling the older GPU drivers.

The NTUSER.DAT file is essential for loading user preferences and should not be deleted or edited. Windows hides the NTUSER.DAT file by default, but it can be made visible by enabling the Show Hidden Files option and browsing to your User folder. Hidden in every user profile is a file named NTUSER.DAT. This file contains the settings and preferences for each user, so you shouldn’t delete it and probably shouldn’t edit it. Windows automatically loads, changes, and saves the file for you.
