Wrong, without DDU driver files can mixed up ,that's why i see so many complains about driver behaviors here. it's 5 minutes work....
Havent used driver uninstaller since Vista days, when it aggressively hosed the windows included default drivers resulting in a black screen.

For noobs, perhaps, that lack simple understanding.

Registered to post my findings once I get done. Had the same issue with graphical corruption in game so I'm currently back on 526.25

I'm putting these in tonight. Would not shock me if my cat starts barking and my dog starts meowing. That's the state of drivers these days.

Modern Warfare 2 was the game, sorry to the lack of clarity. Disappointed. Went back to 522.25 and ran great. Shader compilation is a killer in the menus so best to let that do it's thing before doing much.

Did you use Display Driver Uninstaller in safe mode before you installed the 526.61 Hotfix driver? If not, perhaps some things from previous driver installations carried over.

Display Driver Uninstaller in safe mode
DDU in safe mode? That's nowhere near enough. You need to reformat your SSD, remove it from your PC, snap all the chips off, burn the lot. Buy a new drive, move house and then change your name. Only then will you be free of all the "things" Quick, before its too late...

How hard could it have been to fix the same graphics distortions in Metro Exodus

Yes I did. I'm not going it again either as that's the second time I've had to reconfigure my stuff on GeForce Experience and display settings.

It's the same with older COD MW4 remastered, I have to leave it for 5-10min to do its thing, it's also a good system stress test tool, if it sporadically crashes the game or stops responding while compiling then you know it's bad cpu/ram OC, can be bad ram timings too low. btw have you tried without GF experience and this newer driver?

Surely Not:

GPU usage display/HAGS bug not fixed for me, RTX 2060
For me it works normal. Clean Install with DDU no problem with HAGS on and my Geforce 3090

nVidia's known bugs only listed this issue with the 3xxx series. I wonder if they simply forgot about the lowest end RTX users.

Very mature decision. It's always just best to wait for the dev to deploy an ~ official ~ update to its client (not 3rd-party tricks/nonsense), but the ETA from Acti is always inconsistent and it may take several deployments just to get a 1/3 of its client issues in compliance for all rigs/conslims. Good luck.

Same here HAGS on Resizable BAR enabled on windows 11 22H2 pro, but i always only install graphics driver and physx, no Geforce experience or hdmi audio as i have a dedicated sound card.
