Download: Display Driver Uninstaller Download version 17.0.8.6
The Display Driver Uninstaller Download (DDU) has been updated towards version 17.0.8.6 Display Driver Uninstaller is a driver removal utility that can help you completely uninstall AMD/NVIDIA graphics card drivers and packages from your system.
The AMD/NVIDIA video drivers can normally be uninstalled from the Windows Control panel, this driver uninstaller program was designed to be used in cases where the standard driver uninstall fails, or anyway when you need to thoroughly delete NVIDIA and ATI video card drivers. This software is backed by Guru3D.com The current effect after you use this driver removal tool will be similar as if its the first time you install a new driver just like a fresh, clean install of Windows. As with any tool of this kind, we recommend creating a new system restore point before using it, so that you can revert your system at any time if you run into problems. If you have problem installing older driver or newer one, give it a try as there are some reports that it fix thoses problems. DDU is an application that is programmed by Ghislain Harvey aka Wagnard in our forums, Guru3D.com is the official download partner for this handy application.

- Windows XP up to Windows 10 Fall Creator update 1803 (17134.xx) (anything higher is at your own risk)

I'm not getting any warnings when downloading or running the program.
Windows Defender is fully up-to-date (all features enabled) on 1803.

Ghislain is aware of that, these are false positives - we mention this on the DL page btw:

@Hilbert Hagedoorn , Boss you might want to check out the download package , it keeps telling me it's got a Trojan in it. Might be a false positive but i want to be 100% sure it's clean. Thank you.
Regards: Chispy
Just wanted to know if you still have the issue.
Virustotal and my computer itself doesn't report anything from Microsoft Windows defender; so I think Microsoft may have white-listed it.
