Nvidia GeForce driver version 353.62 for Windows is compatible with Nvidia GeForce graphics adapters based on Fermi, Kepler and Maxwell architectures. Though, people who installed and tested the Windows 10 OS found the update mechanism to be forceful.

Windows 10 by default has no option for selecting or blocking any new updates and new features.
The idea behind this new tool is that if a certain update is troublesome or causes instability, a user can uninstall it and then run the tool afterwards to stop Windows 10 from automatically reinstalling every time the system is restarted. After the software is installed, users can go through the setup to select which updates to block or hide.
