Sometimes the update mechanism from Microsoft thinks it needs to update a driver...but GeForce Experience sees new drivers sooner. Perhaps you have two different update mechanisms and one doesn't know the same information as the other. Note that updating GeForce Experience is not the same as updating the graphics driver...GeForce Experience does have a way of updating to the newest driver though. I would think this latter is the better update source.

You could ask on the GeForce forums:
https://forums.geforce.com/

I go straight to the driver downloads:
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

If it does turn out that the Windows update mechanism is out of sync with the NVIDIA mechanism, then sooner or later...

If it does turn out that the Windows update mechanism is out of sync with the NVIDIA mechanism, then sooner or later Windows will catch up. At least on Windows 7 you can ignore the Windows update mechanism wanting the "newer older misinformed" version. If this is Windows 10, then perhaps you are being forced to use the wrong version at each boot.

i have win10 so you mean that i have to wait windows to catch it up? i know that driver update and gefprce update are diffirent.. i asked in nvidia website and still no answer .. is theere any way to deal with this issue?
 
Do you have a reference URL for the NVIDIA site question/forum thread?

My understanding is that if you remove an update from Windows 10, then Windows 10 will put it back in (other than as a temporary measure it sounds like Win 10 forces you to have the updates it picks...don't know how true that is). I use Windows 7 though. In the case of an update where the update is broken you'll probably have to contact Microsoft and ask them to put in a bug fix. Otherwise you will probably have to wait for someone to fix the issue at Microsoft.

On the other hand, maybe there are settings in GeForce Experience that can help. Be sure to mention which specific update is being reinstalled.
