How to reset Intel Display Driver to factory defaults

MWayn — Thu, 17 Aug 2017 03:19:36 GMT

Hi all. I have an Optiplex 3010 system with Windows 10 installed. (Came with 7 but I upgraded in the free upgrade period). It has integrated Intel Graphics, and I would like to reset all settings to Factory defaults as part of troubleshooting. But when I uninstall the software from Programs and features or directly from the device manager selecting the option to delete the driver, when I reinstall with the software from Dell, or letting Windows install automatically it installs with the settings that it previously had, it never resets. Is there a way to make a Brand new installation deleting automatically all previous settings? Like a Factory reset install? I even used DDU but same thing after reinstall. Thanks.

The Intel control panel suggests to press CTRL+ALT+F8

Thanks for the answer, but I already tried this before posting and didn't worked. For example, before, I had the system tray icon for the Intel Graphics closed, and after uninstall and reinstall, it would still be closed among other settings that would still be the same. I got it fixed my mistake, by unintalling the driver in Programs and Features, and then allowing Windows to install the version it considered. It seems to have all settings at default again.
