XPS 8930, any problems with these updates?
Dell update site for my XPS 8930 is showing 3 updates. One of them is the 1.1.27 BIOS which I already know I am not installing due to all the trouble people have reported in this forum. Another one is a universal windows update that is just "recommended". The third one is NVIDIA-GeForce-GT-10xx-GTX-1xxx-RTXxxxx-Graphics_NPHHM_WIN_31.0.15.1766_A00.EXE and it is listed as critical. I have never had a problem with any of the NVIDIA updates before, but I just wanted to see if anyone has had a problem with it. Thanks. I will install them manually if I do the updates.

It is always recommended to keep your computer's drivers and software up to date for optimal performance and security. The NVIDIA graphics driver update you mentioned (NVIDIA-GeForce-GT-10xx-GTX-1xxx-RTXxxxx-Graphics_NPHHM_WIN_31.0.15.1766_A00.EXE) is listed as critical, which means it contains important updates that could address security vulnerabilities or improve system stability.
While there is always a risk when installing any software or driver updates, in general, NVIDIA updates are reliable and are commonly installed without issue. However, it's always a good idea to make a backup of important files and create a system restore point before performing any updates, just in case there are any issues that arise.
If you do decide to manually install the updates, make sure to follow the instructions provided by Dell and NVIDIA carefully, and don't hesitate to reach out to Dell support if you encounter any problems.
