[German<\/a>]Intel doesn't always have luck when it comes to graphics drivers for Windows. There has been many issues with Intel drivers within the past. Now Intel has announced  the 'Modern Windows Drivers' model (MWD) for Windows 10. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"The announcement can be found in the article Introduction of Windows Modern Drivers for Intel Products. The background is that Microsoft has changed the way hardware drivers work on the Universal Windows Platform (UWP) for Windows\u00ae 10 (and above), and Microsoft Windows* Server 2019 (and above). Hardware that runs on these operating systems can use Windows Modern Drivers (also known as Universal Windows Drivers – UWDs).  <\/p>\n

Modern Windows Drivers (MWD) from Nov. 2018<\/h2>\n

From November 2018, all driver updates for Intel products for Windows 10 and Windows Server 2019 will be available as Windows Modern Drivers. If a system has been updated to a Windows Modern Driver, it is possible (if you have problems, however) to use an older driver.  <\/p>\n

However, Intel does not recommend a rollback, because it is a complex process that can cause system instability. This system instability is particularly relevant for graphics drivers.. <\/p>\n

\n

Note that Microsoft requires the use of Windows Modern Drivers for Windows\u00ae 10 1809 (RS5) and later.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

How do I get MWDs?<\/h2>\n

You can use the Intel\u00ae Driver and Support Assistant (IDSA) to download the latest Intel\u00ae driver updates. This offers the following advantages: <\/p>\n
