TinyNvidiaUpdateChecker VS WindowsSpyBlocker

I use this program to do my GPU updates. I keep GeForce installed just for the recording features but this tool makes updating so much simpler, and much quicker than GeForce ever did

You could use https://github.com/ElPumpo/TinyNvidiaUpdateChecker, that'll pop up a little window once it finds a newer driver was released.

Also Tiny Nvidia Update Checker. Checks for updates and prompts you when there's a new version.

I don't install Nvidia's driver package because it's full of garbage I don't want, like geforce experience and telemetry. this handy tool lets me just install driver updates without any extra junk.

Windows Spy Blocker = This will add a bunch of Windows IP addresses to your Windows Firewall. The basic settings should not impede functionality. It should also allow you to switch ntp (how Windows sets it's Clock) to more open alternatives.

Telemetry is similar to Windows 10. However, you can stop most or all of this with the hosts file or a Pihole. Add this: https://github.com/crazy-max/WindowsSpyBlocker/tree/master/data/hosts

You can use WindowsSpyBlocker on Windows to change the NCSI, or you can change it yourself

Also, the New Oil recommends WindowsSpyBlocker so that may be another option for you.
