Pirat_Nation 🔴(@Pirat_Nation):Microsoft has launched Cloud-Initiated Driver Recovery (CIDR), a new feature that automatically rolls back faulty drivers delivered through Windows Update. The system lets Microsoft remotely restore a previously stable driver version on affected PCs without user action or hardware manufacturer support. It uses existing Windows Update infrastructure to quickly resolve issues from bad driver updates and reduce downtime. The capability is currently in validation testing and will fully integrate with the Hardware Dev Center publishing process starting in September.
