How to Reset the Graphics Driver in Windows 11 - Quick and Easy! ⚡💻

Without a proper graphics driver, you'll face various graphics-related issues, such as screen flickering, a black screen, blurry app icons, stretched icons, and more. If you're experiencing these types of issues, it might be time to reset your graphics card driver. 🎮💻

Resetting your graphics driver in Windows 11 is pretty straightforward; you just need to know how to do it. We'll explain it here. 👍

When should we reset the graphics card driver in Windows 11?

It's not necessary to reset your graphics card drivers regularly. You should only do so when you encounter these issues.

  • You are experiencing flickering issues on your screen.
  • The screen goes black or displays graphical problems.
  • You are having difficulty running supported games.
  • Windows does not detect the GPU after installing system updates.

In Windows 11, resetting your graphics driver is easy. Just follow a few simple methods we share below.

1. Reset the graphics driver with a keyboard shortcut

You can easily reset your graphics driver with a keyboard shortcut. To do this, use the key combination Windows + CTRL + Shift + B. You must press all four keys at the same time to reset the graphics driver.

Once you press the key combination, you'll notice the screen flash for a second, and then everything will return to normal. This confirms that the graphics driver has been reset. ✨

It's completely safe to press the Windows key + CTRL + Shift + B whenever you feel the need; it won't affect any open apps or games. However, it's important to note that the key combination may not work while you're gaming. 🎮

2. Reset the graphics card driver using Device Manager

You can also use the Windows 11 Device Manager app to reset your graphics driver. To do so, follow a few simple steps outlined in this article.

1. Click on Windows 11 search and type Device Manager. Then, open the Device Manager app from the search results list.

2. When Device Manager opens, expand Display adapters.

3. Right click on your connected graphics card and select Properties.

4. In the GPU properties, switch to the tab Controller.

5. Next, click on Disable device.

6. Once disabled, click enable device.

This will reactivate the connected device and restart the graphics driver.

3. Reinstall the graphics driver to reset

Another way to reset it is to reinstall the graphics driver. You can use the same Device Manager utility to reinstall and reset it. Follow the simple steps below.

1. Type "Device Manager" in Windows Search. Then, open the Device Manager application from the search results list.

2. When Device Manager opens, expand Display adapters.

3. Right click on your connected graphics card and select Uninstall device.

Reinstall the graphics driver to reset

4. In the confirmation notice, click Uninstall.

Uninstall

5. After uninstalling, restart your Windows PC.

When your PC boots up, Windows will detect your graphics card and install any missing drivers. If the GPU doesn't install after the restart, you can download the latest version of the graphics driver from the manufacturer's website.

Other ways to fix graphics problems

While resetting your graphics driver is the ultimate solution for many graphics issues, if the problem you're facing still persists, you can try the following fixes. 🔧

  • Update your version of Windows.
  • Run the troubleshooter of screen.
  • Make sure your monitor/display is not defective.
  • Update the BIOS.
  • Rule out hardware problems.
  • Contact customer service.

These are effective methods for resetting the graphics driver on a Windows 11 PC. If you need more help resetting your graphics driver, let us know in the comments. Also, if you find this guide helpful, share it with your friends. 😊
