    Factory Restore Drivers


    Is there a way to restore just the drivers that came with the May update? I used a Driver Update program (Drive Booster 7) and ever since then my system has been glitchy. I rolled back the drivers installed by that software but it didn't help. I'd prefer not to lose all my software, but if I have do, will a Windows 10 factory restore reset all the drivers, or would it be better to just do a fresh install?

    I believe you can do an in place upgrade/repair install and it should start you over from scratch-ish but it will allow you to keep your files and programs. But with all but your GPU driver use windows to update the drivers.
