is it safe to uninstall my Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 and reinstall? Star Trek Online crashing.

I have an Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600. Is it safe to uninstall and reinstall the driver? I am having problems when Star Trek Online crashes during ship battles.

The latest driver package supporting your processor's graphics solution is v15.40.48.5171, which you can download from here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/18369.

As for "is it safe?", I don't see any reason why you cannot just run the installer and let it upgrade the driver. If it fails, it will simply revert to the version that had been running.

Let us know what happened. If the installer fails, we can provide a process for doing a clean uninstall.
