Accidentally closed AMD driver update mid update

[afrotv]

tldr: 290x, closed AMD 16.12.1 driver update mid update. can't update now.

I closed the 16.12.1 driver update while it was mid update and now that I'm trying to update the driver again, I get error 186 - AMD Installer cannot continue due to missing or corrupted manifest files. I would try to find the new, semi-installed driver to delete it, but I have no clue how to find it.

Is there any chance you could restore windows to before the update happened? That would most likely fix your issue if you could hop back to before.

Download DDU HERE

Uninstall your AMD drivers in safe mode (It should give you the option/ask you) using this software.

Then try installing the latest AMD drivers again.

Download the driver for your corresponding OS.
Download DDU from here: http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

Run DDU, reboot into safe mode when it asks and remove all old drivers from your system. Reboot and install the latest amd driver package.

I uninstalled drivers from the AMD Radeon Settings, then installed the 16.12.1 from the website, but it ended up installing 16.50.2001 and now when I check for updates, it says it is up to date? Is this fine? Is 16.50.2001 the most up to date version of the drivers?
