how to update graphics driver windows 11

Some previously installed drivers may be overridden when you upgrade your Windows. This is exactly the case for graphics drivers after you upgrade to Windows 11. Since Windows 11 is still in its early days, not everything about it is stable yet, including the drivers. Especially graphics.

You can update the graphics driver in two ways, automatically or manually. The automatic driver update is pretty simple and does not require much effort.

Some hardware might only work if the OS has a specific driver. If that’s the case, you might want to consider updating the driver manually.

Nevertheless, we have explained the steps for both automatic and manual driver updates.
