Incorrect Monitor Driver Update


Recommended Posts

It's been 3 years. The driver update that CCleaner is deploying for this monitor (ViewSonic XG2405) is incorrect/out of date and installing it will cause errors. The one I have installed is correct. Created an account to report about this driver that should be removed as it will corrupt the monitor drivers. I have set it to be skipped but should be removed if someone does install it.

This is the problem with just updating drivers to the latest version.

Just because something is 'the newest' doesn't mean that is the one that you need to use.

That latest version may not suit your particular hardware, it is to suit other similar hardware. (Newer hardware with the same model number?).

There is nothing wrong with it, it is the correct driver for other peoples hardware (monitors in this case) but not for yours which needs the older version.

PS. Your currently installed driver is actually v1.0.0 - look at the release date.
A newer version (such as v1.3.10) may suit your particular monitor, but obviously from what you say v1.5.0 doesn't.
There again if v1.0.0 is working OK for you then why change it?

Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning? See this link:
