About TinyNvidiaUpdateChecker
TinyNvidiaUpdateChecker is an open source Windows utility that checks for NVIDIA GPU driver updates. It is distributed from a GitHub repository under the GPL-3.0 license and is described as lightweight and portable. It can run in the background on user login once enabled in its Configuration Menu.
The tool also supports a minimal driver install, which lets the user select the driver components to install. This feature needs an optional archive tool (WinRAR, 7-Zip, or NanaZip). It can list older compatible driver versions for downgrading and for switching between Game Ready and Studio drivers. It requires Windows 10 or higher, the .NET Desktop Runtime 8 x64, and an internet connection.
