Intel is no longer offering their standard IGP graphics drivers, they have changed their driver policy towards a new Universal Drivers architecture starting with Windows 10 October 2018 Update. This represents a shift in all Intel Graphics Drivers.



Modern Windows Drivers (MWD) are driver packages that will install and run on Universal Windows Platform (UWP) based editions of Windows 10.

These new drivers labeled as either UWD (Universal Windows Driver) or Windows Modern graphics drivers are not backward compatible with our previous graphics drivers that we're now labeling Legacy. This means if later you want to revert to a Legacy driver you will need to uninstall the driver via Windows Apps and Features and reboot the system before installing a Legacy driver. Failure to do so may result in minor to catastrophic issues on your system as well as system instability.
