Windows Update 將自動還原問題驅動程式

🔑 增強重點摘要

• •The new feature, named "Cloud-Initiated Driver Recovery" (CIDR), allows Microsoft to remotely trigger a rollback of problematic drivers to a previously known-good version via the existing Windows Update pipeline, without requiring user or hardware partner intervention.
• •This recovery action is initiated from Microsoft's Hardware Dev Center (HDC) Driver Shiproom when a driver is identified with quality issues during its evaluation process.
• •The system will first identify a problematic driver, then create a recovery request targeting specific drivers and associated shipping labels, delivering rollback instructions to affected devices and replacing the faulty driver with an approved previous version.
• •Microsoft is also addressing a long-standing issue where Windows Update could downgrade manually installed graphics drivers by implementing a new two-part targeting system (2-part HWIDs and CHIDs) for new display driver submissions, aiming for narrower and more accurate driver targeting.
• •The proactive driver validation initiative leverages the Windows Hardware Lab Kit (HLK), a test automation framework used to certify devices and drivers for Windows, which has evolved from earlier tools like Hardware Compatibility Test (HCT) and Driver Test Manager (DTM).
