In some rare instances, a device can become unstable or stop functioning correctly when the device driver is updated.
Driver rollback feature in Microsoft Windows helps restore the device driver to a previous version. This helps avoid potential conflicts or issues with the new driver that is installed on the computer.
Driver issues can occur if the driver is corrupt or if another device driver is in conflicting with the updated version.
To roll back a device driver to a previous working version, follow these steps:
Press the Windows + R key on the keyboard.
In the Run dialog box, type devmgmt.msc
and press Enter.
In the Device Manager window, right-click the suspected driver name and select Properties.
