Nvidia 416.34 Driver Uninstalling Itself (?)

[ManOfArc]

Here's an oddity. Just updated to the above driver (latest at time of this posting), and it deletes itself whenever I reboot or power up. Tried a DDU uninstall of the driver; same thing. Tried using CCleaner; same thing. Did a virus/malware scan; same thing. Figure it must be the driver. Finally had to go back to driver 411.70 to stop the issue. Anyone else experience this?

I have an older machine with Win7 x64.
Intel Q9650
Gigabyte GM-G41MT-S2PT
Asus GTX 1050 Ti
2x4GB DDR3 1600

I was going to update the driver on my newer Win10 machine, but now I'm hesitant do to so.

Not that particular issue mate but there have been alot of issues reported with 416.34 and 411.70, ive rolled mine back to 411.63 to be safe. No harm for now mate, presume some form of conflict, given the recent release of the 2070 a new set of drivers will be coming out any day now. If you have a problem with the next drivers then we can start worrying

Unless your experiencing problems with the 411.70 then leave as is for now bud.

awhile back there was a thread over on the GeForce forums about the then current drivers being buggy and the mods identified what was then the last stable driver

you might check over there and see what they currently consider the last stable driver

start at about the 3rd post in the thread
